St. Patrick School is a parochial school and part of the educational system of the Diocese of Oakland. Fr. George Moss, Pastor of St. Patrick Parish, opened the school in the fall of 1956, enrolling students in the first through fourth grades. During the 1957-58 school year, the building was completed by adding rooms for fifth through eight grades, a library, parish kitchen, and a hall to be used as a temporary church/auditorium. The Immaculate Heart Sisters staffed the school from its opening, but in 2001, they returned to their mother house in Arizona. A year later, the convent was converted to house the current preschool and infant care centers, enrolling up to 45 preschoolers and 20 infants and toddlers.

When a fire burned much of the school in April 1982, the students finished the year at the neighboring school, Saint Joseph School. The school used portable buildings until the completion of the present building. Bishop Cummings dedicated the new building on Feb. 15, 1983. In the fall of 1989, the first kindergarten class was offered. With encouragement from Fr. Paul Engberg, the construction of two new Junior High classrooms began in August, 1990 with most of the labor undertaken by parents and  volunteers. The construction was completed in May, 1991 under the direction of Rev. Father Melvin Hary. In 2010, under the advisement of Father Larry Young, an additional middle school building was constructed, which included a modern science laboratory. In 2024, construction began on a new multipurpose building to provide a dedicated theater space and several new education spaces for small group learning.

Almost seventy years later, St. Patrick School is proud to offer enrollment for students six weeks of age through eighth grade with a diverse population of over 400 students and 50 teachers and staff members. In addition to rigorous academics, every student is offered one-to-one technology, daily physical education, biweekly Spanish (daily in middle school), and biweekly music instruction. The blessings of a beautiful campus offer student access to the school garden, where students learn how to plant, maintain, and cook fruits and vegetables, and Shamrock Park, where students can spent time in nature and learn about the natural world. Students can also elect to participate in CYO sports and musical theater throughout the year at little to no extra cost to families. This thriving and modern community offers students a strong foundation to build a future of endless possibilities and offers families a place to make life-long friends.
