School Reopening Plan 2020-21


June 25, 2020:  Holy Spirit School will be monitoring and reviewing all recommendations and guidelines regarding reopening school under safe COVID-19 protocols.  During the summer months, we will determine how best to integrate health and safety protocols into our daily school environment for the upcoming 2020-21 school year.  As many of these guidelines are fluid, Holy Spirit School will adapt its policies and procedures as necessary in order to meet the most current recommendations by state and county health officials along with the Diocese of Oakland.

Health, Safety, and Facilities Protocols for 2020-21 School Year
April 6, 2020:  Based on State of California, Alameda County, and Diocese of Oakland recommendations, in-person classes at Holy Spirit School will be suspended for the duration of the school year ending June 5, 2020.  Distance Learning will continue to be in session for all grades, PreK-8th, during the interim. 

We are constantly monitoring the situation with COVID-19 and are following the recommendations of the county health department along with the Diocese of Oakland.  If you would like more information about our current strategies for assessing and mitigating the spread of COVID-19, please click on the links below.

Holy Spirit School is a Pre-K through 8th grade school located in Fremont, California and is a vital ministry of Holy Spirit Parish in the Diocese of Oakland.  For 60 years we have been dedicated to developing the whole child by providing a quality Catholic education in a safe and caring environment.

Holy Spirit School provides academic rigor and educational
success by developing the minds and hearts of our students (Kindergarten through 8th grades). Additionally, Holy Spirit Preschool is available for students ages 3-5.

  • We strive to achieve Academic Excellence by providing students with the tools and attention they need to excel.
 
  • Teacher/Student Ratio - With a teacher and instructional assistant in our classrooms, a low teacher-student ratio allows us to differentialize instruction to address the individual needs of our students.
 
  • Committed and Caring Staff - Our highly skilled teachers are dedicated to maintaining academic standards.
 
  • Accredited - Holy Spirit School undergoes a rigorous accreditation process under the guidelines of the Western Catholic Education Association.

Welcome to Holy Spirit School!


Thank you for your interest in our parish school. Holy Spirit School is dedicated to developing the whole child by providing a quality Catholic education in a safe and caring environment. Our dedicated faculty and staff fully encourage and nurture all students towards achieving their very best. We are confident that you will find our parish school provides the faith development, academic excellence, and character building skills that all parents desire for their children.

For the past 60 years Holy Spirit School has been an excellent foundation for Catholic education with the vast majority of our students being accepted into Catholic High School with placement in advanced or honor classes.

In addition to our rigorous curriculum we offer many enrichment classes, including music, art, Spanish, and physical education. We have integrated technology into the classrooms in many ways: iPads, MacBooks, and interactive displays. Students are also encouraged to make use of our library.  After school, students have the opportunity to take part in many activities, such as: Student Council, Ecology Club, and Peer Tutoring. As Christ-centered persons our students are encouraged to join the choir, or serve our Lord as an Acolyte.

In living out our student learning expectations, students have the opportunity to be health conscious individuals by joining our extensive CYO program. Our CYO program allows children to build friendships while playing sports. Our athletes learn to love a game, and the importance of good sportsmanship.

Finally, I feel blessed to have been able to be a student, parent and teacher at this amazing school! I look forward to sharing with you all that our school has to offer. Come and take a tour and see why Holy Spirit Parish School is so much more than a school. It is a community of faith-filled people, where lifetime friendships are formed while providing a quality Catholic education.

"Let us be guided by the Holy Spirit. Allow him to speak to our hearts and he will tell us this: God is Love."      -Pope Francis
