MISSION STATEMENT: St. Charles Parish School in Hartland, Wisconsin nourishes and grows a vibrant Catholic community committed to innovation, responsiveness and compassion as it prepares and challenges students in their intellectual, spiritual and moral lives.
 

COVID Update: We currently do not have any students or staff at home in isolation for testing positive for COVID or in quarantine due to being considered a close contact outside of St. Charles. Please remember to continue monitoring your child's health daily and keep your kids home if they are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms or are not feeling well. We are grateful for all of your prayers and support for our students, staff, and school community!

Twin Day: In celebration of =E2=80=98Twos=E2=80=99-day (2/22/22), we will have a school-wide dress down on Tuesday =E2=80=94 Twin Day! Students and staff will coordinate with a friend to dress alike for the day.

Spirit Wear Sale: Our spirit wear sale starts tomorrow! This is a fundraiser, and Mid-City Sports in Hartland will generously donate a portion of each sale back to St. Charles Parish and School. Our new, limited-edition "Under Construction" t-shirt will be for sale, too! Please visit our website for more information and to place your orders.

Uniform Upcycle Collection: The St. Charles uniform sale is back! We are enthusiastically accepting donations of gently-used (no holes or tears please) uniform items. Bins are available outside the School Office for you or your child to drop items off throughout the semester. We hope to build up some inventory and have sales before next school year. We hope you'll consider giving these clothes a "second life!"
