St. Pius V School has provided a Dominican education and formation in prayer, study, community, and service since its founding in 1929.

Our History

St. Pius V Catholic School, located in Providence, Rhode Island, was founded in 1929 and has been operating continuously since. The school was first staffed by the Dominican Sisters of Blauvelt, New York, and, in 2004, the Diocese of Providence invited the Dominican Sisters of Saint Cecilia of Nashville, Tennessee to lead the school, continuing its rich Dominican tradition.

The Nashville Dominican Sisters have played an integral role in shaping and leading the school in the 21st century. The Sisters are a vital part of the school’s faculty and staff, serving both as classroom teachers and as principals of the school. Alongside a dedicated staff of lay Catholic educators, the Sisters strive to form each child in God’s Truth, and to instill in students the four pillars of Dominican spirituality: Prayer, Study, Community, and Service.

Who We Serve

Rooted in the Dominican tradition, St. Pius V School provides a Christ-centered learning environment in which students grow in the virtues of faith, truth, and charity. Currently, St. Pius V School serves approximately 230 students in Pre-K through Eighth Grade.
