Saint Teresa of Calcutta Catholic School, a Preschool through Grade 8 community, was formed in 2022 by the merger of Holy Family Holy Name and St. James St. John Schools. We are a member of the Diocese of Fall River Catholic Schools Alliance.
Saint Teresa of Calcutta resides on the St. James St. John campus on Orchard Street in New Bedford.
A middle school, serving the combined schools, has undergone major renovations and resides in the former Kennedy Youth Center (located behind the former St. James St. John building).
