HISTORY Saint Brendan School, built by parishioners of Saint Brendan Church in 1951, is a single grade elementary school addressing the educational needs of its parishioners. Our school is located in the Cedar Grove section of Dorchester bordering Milton and Quincy. The school, formerly staffed by Sisters of Saint Joseph, has provided quality education for an annual enrollment of approximately 245 students. For more than fifty years St. Brendan School has been a vital part of our parish community. We continue to function as a successful and competitive school due to the overwhelming spiritual and financial support of our parishioners.
The strength of St. Brendan School lies in the dedicated, creative, professional, caring and faith-filled faculty and the sense of unity that exists between the school and the home. Teachers are truly committed to the development of the whole child. Click here to visit out Contact & Staff page.
