Saint Brigid Catholic School teaches kindergarten through eighth grade, helping build a strong foundation for academic, physical and spiritual growth. The religious components of our programs are rooted in Catholic teachings, but students of any faith and denomination are welcome.
Saint Brigid Catholic School is part of the educational system established by the Diocese of Saginaw, with a core curriculum that is aligned with state standards and developed by the Saginaw Diocese Office of Education and includes religion, language arts (reading, writing, phonics, and spelling), science, social studies, and math. Students also receive instruction in Spanish, information technology, art, physical education, vocal music, and band. Additional programs that provide knowledge and growth for students and are included in our core curriculum include:
- D.A.R.E. – a program in collaboration with the Midland Police Department that teaches 5th grade students how to “just say no” to drugs, alcohol, violence, and peer pressure
- Junior Achievement – a volunteer-led program that fosters work-readiness, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy skills
- Child Lures Prevention Program – assists in protecting students, both offline and online
