Blessed Sacrament School is a primary school teaching students from grades Kindergarten up through eighth grade, and is based in the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament parish. The school, along with the rest of the parish, recently underwent a large renovation, which created a long addition to the school.

Blessed Sacrament participates in Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) with basketball and soccer teams for boys and girls, and has a new football and track team.
