Basilica of St. Paul Catholic Church — Attraction in Daytona Beach

The Basilica of St.Paul Catholic Church School is a great school for quality education driven parents. As a native of the central Florida area, I can personally attest the years and decades in which the school has been noted for it's excellent quality education provided to it's students. The school is open to students of diverse cultural and religious backgrounds in grades pre-K thru middle school. * The students must attend weekly Mass (with communion offered but not forced upon students)and take a class on religion ( through an Orthodox Roman Catholic perspective)*. They've partnered with and utilize the educational teaching standards prescribed by the University of Notre Dame Excellence in Education Protocols.

And the current school administration is great!! Mr. Ronald Pagano - the principal is highly qualified education professional, a well known long time Volusia County School District veteran educator & former administrator. And he has made extremely wise choices in the school staff.

The school offers breakfast and lunch both hot and cold. The week's menu is emailed to the parents weekly. And the follow the USDA school menu dietary guidelines. A variety of snacks are sold after school to benefit various student projects.

Extracurricular activity choices, of which I'm personally aware of include: Chorus, music, Panther Dance Squad, basketball, cheerleading. Though there may be more of which I'm...

My fiance and I waited a whole year last year to start the marriage process. Every week he would call them & they would keep saying ur on the list. Then when he would show up to the parish office to see if he could talk to someone and the first time he did they said come back in August. So he did and every time since then no one was at the parish office. Even when it was open he would wait hours only for the business to close. We waisted an entire year of our lives waiting for this church to help us start the marriage preparation process only for them to dismiss us over and over again when we would call and they would say oh we will get to you when we get to you and they never ever did and we are in 2025 now. We waiting for over 9 months being very patient just to start the process. We should have given up a long time ago. Now we have started the process at a Catholic Church in clermont and it only took one phone call & they got us started right away and after the first meeting with the priest there we were able to make a date like wow why couldn’t that be the case here ? A year of our lives bye bye , we could have gotten married last year if this church bothered to communicate with us. I guess we were just an...

It's a beautiful cathedral type Basilica, it was built in the 20's, so the architecture is amazing. They even have a historic section of pictures and relics used there over the years. It's your classic Catholic church with Saint statues and candles you light all around. The only reasons why I gave it 3 stars is because it's in a rough part of town, and the parishioners are not as "family like" as I would like, It's a little cold. The priests are mostly foreign, though nothing wrong with that, sometimes can be hard to understand. You won't find that coffee and doughnuts, everyone get together after Mass and chit chat here, Very few social events. They do hold reconciliation every Saturday, but you have to get there early. They have a 4pm Mass and the priest WILL stop confessions about 20 mins before people start showing up. I've personally been there and seen only 2 people left in line and the priest walk away. When the guy talked to him to plead, the priest said no and walked away. But these are small issues really. I will always encourage everyone to attend church no matter what. Your there for our Lord and yourself, nothing...
