St. Max Kolbe CATHOLIC SCHOOL
St. Max Kolbe Catholic School, located in Delano, offers
a private classical education
for kindergarten through
grade 6 students. The Catholic faith and traditions are taught
and embraced at the school, but children of all faiths are
welcome.
As a consolidated school from the Roman Catholic parishes
of St. Peter and St. Joseph, St. Max Kolbe has been a part of the
Delano community for more than 130 years. By any measure,
this is a remarkable legacy, and we look forward to sharing this
tradition of excellence with your family. Our goal is to prepare
your child for adolescence and for life with robust knowledge,
meaningful skills, and strong social and emotional growth.
• The school is fully accredited by the state of Minnesota
• Its scope and sequence exceeds MDE academic standards
requirements
• Small class sizes allow for active student participation,
individualized attention, and academic success
• The Classical Education curriculum follows a learning
tradition thousands of years old that continues to prove
successful for educating students in the 21st Century. It is a
way of learning grounded in the belief that all knowledge is
interrelated and that learning follows the natural process of
human growth and development. The two foundations of the
classical model of learning are these.
1. Learning is language-focused, accomplished through
written and spoken word.
2. Classical learning has a three-part pattern that directly
correlates to the natural cognitive development of children as
they grow and mature toward adulthood in three basic stages.
The ancient Greeks called these stages grammar (mastering
facts), dialectic or logic (building logical reasoning and critical
thinking), and rhetoric (articulate expression that combines
logic and reasoning).
• The school also includes liberal arts subjects to educate the
whole child.
Why is St. Max Kolbe a good choice for your child?
Your child’s learning builds appropriate knowledge and skills
across multiple disciplines. And, because private education is
both a choice and a fi nancial investment that demonstrates a
commitment to something far more than learning, the school
also teaches faith, character and virtuous behavior.
Ultimately, the school’s goal is for every child to leave ready
for middle and high school, prepared to take their place as
confi dent lifelong learners and good citizens. It is also important
to that they know they are a unique child of God with gifts to
