Saint Ephrem Catholic School is located in Bensalem, PA, and we provide an exceptional Catholic education for students in Grades PreK-8.
We currently have 370 students in our school, and each of them is an integral part of our wonderful school community. Our faculty is comprised of outstanding educators, who care deeply about their students' academic success and personal happiness.
Our principal, Sister Shaun Thomas and our pastor, Fr. Mike Speziale work together to ensure that St. Ephrem School is regarded as a premier Catholic grade school in our local community and in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
Our school spirit is contagious, and we are always #SECProud! Go Jags!
All students participate in weekly special classes such as Technology, STEM, Art, Music, Gym, Spanish, and Library.
Our CARES Program is available before and after-school for all students to help accommodate parents’ work schedules.
Saint Ephrem Catholic offers many extra-curricular opportunities for students including a competitive CYO athletic program, Youth Group activities, instrument and band lessons, Irish dance classes, and school sponsored events.
Each month, students participate in Spirit Fridays! We celebrate school spirit by dressing down in SEC clothes, and we collect donations for local charities and food drives.
We are Saint Ephrem Catholic because our parish and school are united as one! Our school colors are blue and white! Our mascot is the Jaguar! Go Jags!
