Welcome To St. Matthew
Catholic School
St. Matthew School, located in the heart of Hillsboro, OR, has been teaching academic excellence in a Christ-
centered environment since 1914. We provide educational opportunities for Preschool ages 3-4, full day
kindergarten, and grades 1-8. Students thrive in a loving, supportive environment.
The school is distinguished by its excellent educational curriculum, rigorous academic standards, spiritual growth,
high expectations, dedicated staff, involved parents, and supportive parish community.
The school is fully accredited by the Western Catholic Educational Association and the Northwest Association of
Accredited Schools (WCEA/NAAS). All primary teachers grades PreK through 8th grade are licensed teachers
through the Oregon Department of Education.
We invite you to explore our website as well as call for a personal tour.
