Seattle Nativity School
Seattle Nativity School is a Catholic, Jesuit-endorsed STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) middle school seeking to break the cycle of poverty through an education that nourishes souls and ignites leaders for love and service. The school opened its doors in September of 2013 to its first class of 6th graders. Now, Seattle Nativity School serves youth in 6th through 8th grade who qualify for free or reduced lunch and/or low-income housing offering a challenging and supportive learning environment to motivate students of all faith backgrounds. We strive to graduate young men and women for others who are: religious, open to growth, committed to justice, intellectually competent, loving, and grateful.
