Supporting Catholic Education in Quincy
Quincy Catholic Schools exists to support strong, faith-filled Catholic education for families in Quincy and the surrounding area. Together with our parishes, school leaders, and community, we serve students from preschool through eighth grade across four Catholic elementary schools.
Our schools are rooted in parish life, guided by shared values, and united by a commitment to faith formation, academic excellence, and service.
Who We Are
Quincy Catholic Schools supports four parish-based Catholic elementary schools:
- Blessed Sacrament School
- St. Dominic School
- St. Francis Solanus School
- St. Peter School
Each school maintains its own identity, traditions, and parish community while sharing a common mission to educate the whole child, spiritually, academically, and socially.
Quincy Catholic Schools exists to strengthen collaboration, provide shared support where appropriate, and help ensure Catholic education remains accessible and sustainable for future generations.
Families often want to understand how Catholic schools are guided and supported. The sections below offer a closer look at the mission, leadership, and history that shape Quincy Catholic Schools.
The Role of Quincy Catholic Schools

- Encouraging collaboration among schools and parishes
- Supporting shared tuition and financial aid structures for grades K–8

Our role is rooted in partnership. Decisions affecting school life are made with respect for parish leadership, local school communities, and the unique character of each school.
For many families, Catholic education in Quincy extends beyond the elementary years and into a broader, connected community.
A Connected Catholic Education Community in Quincy
Families in Quincy benefit from a uniquely connected Catholic education community.
Quincy Catholic Schools serves students from preschool through eighth grade. Many families continue their Catholic education journey at Quincy Notre Dame High School, which offers Catholic education for grades nine through twelve. Beyond high school, Quincy University, a Catholic liberal arts university in the heart of Quincy, provides undergraduate, graduate, and select doctoral programs.
While each institution has its own leadership and governance, together they reflect a shared commitment to faith-based education. In a community of approximately 39,000 residents, families have the opportunity to pursue Catholic education from early childhood through advanced degrees, a rare and meaningful strength of our community.
Choosing a school is a personal decision, and learning more often begins with a simple conversation.
