Education:
St. Charles Borromeo School was dedicated on February 24, 1952, and quickly grew to include grades K-8. St. Charles was originally lead by the Sisters of the Presentation, followed in 1969 by the Ursuline Sisters.
Although many of the religious teachers have been replaced by lay people, the school continues to provide a strong commitment to our Catholic faith, values, customs and traditions. Catholic education is an integral part of the program in all classes and in extra-curricular activities.

Outreach:
Our Company:
Loyola Press is a Jesuit ministry serving the Catholic community in faith formation, education, and spiritual growth since our founding in 1912. We are a nonprofit apostolate of the Chicago Province of the Society of Jesus.
We are committed to service by publishing resources that support children's faith formation, language arts education, whole community catechesis, and the ongoing spiritual growth of adults through books and resources on a wide variety of topics including prayer, Catholic life, history, and Ignatian spirituality.
Our Mission:
Our mission as a company is to nurture a lived faith through building relevant and enduring bridges between our 2000-year-old Catholic faith and the needs and desires of today's spiritual seekers.
Tewa Missions
Established in 2000, the Franciscan Tewa Missions provide joint administration for three Tewa Indian parishes: San Diego Church, Tesuque Pueblo; Santa Clara Church, Santa Clara Pueblo; and San Ildefonso Church, San Ildefonso Pueblo.
