Welcome to Our School

Welcome to Nazareth School, a Catholic private, fully-accredited elementary school located in San Diego, California, for students from preschool through eighth grade. For over 90 years, we have educated generations of students, helping them build personal character, compassion, and values for life. As a Nazareth School family, we seek to live and learn in the Nazareth Way—with respect, hospitality, love, justice, compassion, and patience.

Polly and Paul Sipper

“When we initially enrolled our oldest child at Nazareth School, we were looking for a safe, friendly, and warm environment for our three-year-old. Thirteen years later, we are extremely grateful that we made that decision and feel like the experience was so much more than we could have imagined. Nazareth is a wonderful community with supportive teachers, staff, and families that have prepared our children academically, spiritually, and personally for the next chapters of their lives.”

She has made great friends, enjoys being a part of the welcoming, active school community and has blossomed from the care, personal attention, and love she has received from the teachers and staff. We especially appreciate how hard the teachers work to help the students learn, offering an inspiring blend of high expectations, creativity, generosity, and joy.”
