DISCOVER OUR CONNECTED COMMUNITIES: A FAMILY UNITED BY FAITH

At St. Paul Catholic High School, we are more than a school—we are a family bound together by faith, excellence, and community. While our campus is in Bristol, our reach extends far and wide, drawing students from towns across central Connecticut. Each community adds its unique color to the tapestry of our student body, enriching our shared journey.

When you walk the halls of St. Paul, you’ll meet students from diverse hometowns and backgrounds. From the charm of Unionville to the rolling hills of Thomaston, the historic streets of Waterbury, to bustling West Hartford, our students hail from places big and small. Towns like Berlin and Kensington bring a close-knit spirit, while the scenic beauty of the Plymouth and Torrington area instills a deep appreciation for God’s creation. Together, we create a vibrant environment where every student’s roots are celebrated, and everyone has a home.

A SCHOOL WITH CONNECTIONS ACROSS CONNECTICUT

Families from Cheshire to Southington, Meriden to Wolcott, choose St. Paul because they know it’s more than a high school—it’s a place where faith and academics flourish side by side. Whether from the urban energy of New Britain or the peaceful charm of Farmington, every family here is drawn to St. Paul’s commitment to personal growth and service. They are united by their love for a Christ-centered education that forms students of character and purpose.

A COMMUNITY RICH IN SERVICE AND FAITH

Our relationship with these surrounding towns is built on the shared mission that brings us together. Students from Meriden might be found volunteering at a parish food pantry or its beautiful annual Daffodil festival, while others from our hometown of Bristol are organizing a fundraiser for a local cause. Farmington families join together with those from Torrington to serve at shelters or participate in local Respect Life events. These partnerships, forged across communities, inspire our students to live out their faith in tangible ways.

Our many annual community events like the "Frosty" Falcon 5K or Light Up St. Paul attract attendees from all over to gather as one. In these moments, you see what makes our St. Paul community so special: a shared commitment to serving others and celebrating our faith. This spirit is also exemplified in our annual Catholic Schools Week celebrations and other important traditions.

WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE ST. PAUL

When families choose where to send their children to school, they’re selecting on more than academic excellence—they’re choosing a place where their child can flourish spiritually, academically, and socially. Families know that our emphasis on faith, character, and community gives students a solid life foundation. St. Paul offers something unique, whether it’s the sense of belonging during Mass or the lifelong friendships forged on campus.

A NETWORK OF EXCELLENCE AND BELONGING

Each town brings something unique to our special community. These places are where our students’ stories begin, and where their dreams are shaped before they step foot on our campus. 

As one of the most geographically diverse schools in the region, we take pride in uniting students and families from across central Connecticut. When you join St. Paul, you’re becoming part of a community that spans cities, towns, and generations. Together, we are Falcons. Together, we soar. Welcome to our family, and welcome home!
