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.
NEWS & NOTES
Staff Update: We recently learned that Mrs. Claire Almazan, our Spanish teacher, has made the decision to leave St. Charles. We are grateful to Mrs. Almazan for her work and dedication to St. Charles these past five years. Please keep her and her family in your prayers! 

Additionally, we are happy to announce that Mrs. Brenda Serrano will be our new Spanish teacher! Mrs. Serrano filled in during Mrs. Almazan's maternity leave last year and did a wonderful job of engaging and challenging students in Spanish.
