Welcome from Dr. William Hudson

Welcome to Totino-Grace, an outstanding Catholic educational community serving families in the northern metropolitan Twin-Cities. We are a welcoming community that inspires students to perform to the best of their ability and prepare them to live lives of accomplishment and service by touching their hearts and challenging their intellect.


Since 1966, Totino-Grace has been influenced and enriched by the vision and innovations of our two founders, Blessed Theresa Gerhardinger, Founder of the School Sisters of Notre Dame, and Saint John Baptist de La Salle, patron saint of teachers and Founder of the Institute of the Brothers of Christian Schools. In founding their religious communities, they transformed education by calling together a community of educators to bring spirituality to teaching and learning, and to give a human and Christian education to young people, especially the poor.

A Totino-Grace education centers on Catholic values and compassionate relationships, emphasizing academic excellence, faith formation, respect for the individual, service to others and responsibility in the world community. We offer a comprehensive and rigorous curriculum and excellent co-curricular activities, clubs, and teams. Our faculty and staff are highly qualified, experienced, and dedicated to establishing a personal relationship with each student. 

Our passion and zeal for Catholic education enable us to meet the needs of our students through creative advancements in teaching, technology and academic rigor, all within a safe, nurturing community. Our outstanding teachers and staff each accept and fully embrace their call to touch hearts, stimulate minds and cultivate leadership to prepare students for the challenges and opportunities of contemporary life.

The Totino-Grace experience is unparalleled. As we build upon our Catholic Lasallian mission and long tradition of excellence, I am convinced we successfully meet the needs of 21st century learners through both innovation and rigor. We appreciate and value the opportunity, in partnership with parents, to inspire young people to surpass their own expectations and experience personal and spiritual fulfillment. By embracing the legacy of our Founders and the rich history of the school, Totino-Grace provides the environment within which our students create their own legacy.

Welcome to Totino-Grace. Live, Jesus, in our hearts. Forever!
