All Souls Catholic School believes that parents are the primary educators of their children. Since everyone is made in the image and likeness of God (Gen. 1:26), we strive to make All Souls Catholic School a place where all students are treated with respect and dignity. When parents choose All Souls Catholic School, we become partners in your child's education. We strive to educate the whole child, academically, emotionally, physically and most importantly spiritually. Therefore All Souls Catholic School has a well-defined curriculum supplemented with enrichment programs to meet the individual needs of our students.
We follow the Content Standards - California Department of Education for all academic subjects as listed below.

Our qualified, dedicated, and caring staff set high expectations for academic excellence and utilize the latest approaches in education and methodology to help students meet these expectations.
Since we are a Catholic School, all students in all grades have one Religion class everyday that teach our students about the Catholic Faith. All students are held to high academic standards in this class. For the middle school, Religion is a major academic subject and is included in the calculation of a student's Grade Point Average (GPA).
We acknowledge that all of the skills necessary in life are not necessarily taught within academic subjects. Many skills need to be learned through activities that students freely choose to participate in. Therefore All Souls Catholic Schools offers the following Extra Curricula Activities listed below.
- Academic Decathlon - Students participate in the California Catholic Schools Academic Junior High Decathlon
- Athletics Program - Students in Grades 4-8 participate in various sports through the Peninsula / Parish School League
- Band - Students in grades 4-8 participate in an after school instrumental music program
