A Message From Our Principal

Dear Friends,

Thank you for visiting our St. Barnabas School website, where you will find a wealth of information about our school community at your fingertips.

St. Barnabas School is committed to the guiding principles found in our mission statement. We take the responsibility and trust you place in us to foster your children's academic, social, and spiritual development very seriously. The traditions of our Catholic Faith are exercised through classroom learning, daily prayer, and service to others. We are also deeply committed to academic excellence in all other traditional areas of study written by the Diocese of Cleveland and based on the Ohio Department of Education state standards. A wide variety of co-curricular activities are also available to enhance our student’s experiences. This includes CYO Sports, Academic Challenge, Science Olympiad, Band, Choir, Robotics, Lego Club, and SBTV (our in-house news station), with new clubs regularly being introduced. I invite you to learn more about our National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence by scheduling a tour or attending one of our Open Houses.

Any questions you may have, or for any additional information about our school, please feel free to contact me at any time.

Faithfully Yours,
Mr. Bradley Seislove
School Principal
