Our History

St. Pius X Catholic School is a parish school within the Diocese of Corpus Christi and is accredited by the Texas Catholic Conference of Bishops Education Department. For nearly six decades, the school’s academic and spiritual success has been rooted in the strong partnership among our parish priests, dedicated faculty and staff, supportive parents, and the wider parish community.
