Welcome to St. Bede the Venerable school! We are a fully-accredited, Catholic grammar school that that seeks to empower children through faith development and academic excellence.
Located at the base of the foothills in La Canada Flintridge, California, we educate children from Transitional Kindergarten through 8th grade, with 100% of our graduates matriculating to their top choice high schools including FSHA, St. Francis, Loyola, Mayfield, and Poly.
Determining the school that best meets the educational, emotional, and spiritual needs of your child can be a challenging process. The administration at St. Bede is here to help support you through each stage from discovery through acceptance. We invite you to learn more about our school and community by exploring our website, and scheduling a visit to see our school in action. We also invite you to join us on January 29th after the 9am for our annual Open House where you can meet the teachers and see student work!
We look forward to meeting you! – Principal Liz Bozzo

Our mission is to give you a clear picture of our core values, educational standards, and holistic approach, so you can make your choice with confidence.
St. Bede seeks students who demonstrate a sense of character, the ability to thrive in an academically rigorous environment, and whose parents’ goals align with those of the school. Applicants for all grades are evaluated on a variety of factors including interviews, standardized assessments, recommendations from current teachers, and for our older applicants, academic records from current schools.
