Principal's Message
Dear St. Charles Family,
As we reach the end of the school year, we have the opportunity to benefit the future of a group of kids through a school supply drive organized by one of our current juniors, James Marinas. James currently has family members working in an elementary school in a remote area of the Philippines where kids are in need of basic school supplies. At Ma-Aslob Elementary School, even the essentials, such as pencils, are scarce. Our goal is to help these kids out by providing the essential hardware they need to learn.
During the weeks of May 5 to May 14, parents and students can either donate money or hard goods; pencils, erasers, notebooks, and backpacks are needed the most. We will be working with teachers from the Religion Department to collect supplies in boxes. Any cash donations should go to the Finance Office for collection. All cash proceeds will go towards buying the aforementioned supplies.
If you have any questions, we invite you to reach out to James Marinas at [email protected] or Mr. Warner at [email protected]
Thank you for your continued support.
James R. Lower, Principal

“To this day, my core group of friends remains those from St. Charles and whenever we get together we share and laugh about memories from our time there.
Specific things I recall are beating our league rival in soccer, praying before every class, learning from Sister Margaret the format for writing a paper (which I still use to this day), taking exams in the multi-purpose room, developing the study and time-management skills that I have applied in college and the rest of my life."
--Jay Knox, Class of 2006
"Our family strongly supports quality Catholic education. We believe in setting high expectations for our children so they are empowered to achieve great things.
St Charles provides our sons with a supportive environment that encourages hard work and perseverance. We have seen first-hand the growth and development of our three sons from young boys to men who are strong in their faith, active in the community and prepared for college. Our sons have benefited from the brotherhood of St Charles. It is entwined into the fabric and culture of the school and all of its families.
Most importantly, we have developed friendships that will last a lifetime.”
--Christopher and Karen Eramo
“My four years at St. Charles have provided me with a solid foundation built upon principles of faith, brotherhood, academic excellence and discipline.
I am confident that I am leaving St. Charles with the skills and experience needed to be a leader of consequence wherever life takes me.”
--Anthony Castrodale, Class of 2017
