PHILOSOPHY

As Catholic educators, together with the family, our school works to instill Catholic values so that our students can integrate and maintain these values in today's society. Because we recognize the God-given uniqueness of each child, "Continuous Progress" is the basis for the development of each child's academic skills according to their ability.

We choose to accomplish our goals by following the directives of our Bishops as expressed in the document "To Teach As Jesus Did". 

MESSAGE
The children are taught the precepts of the Faith and develop an awareness of, and a commitment to, the basic Christian values of love, peace, justice, brotherhood and respect for self and others.

COMMUNITY
Community is an inherent part of our faith education. Through community and school activities, the school family tries to develop in our students a recognition of man's need for and his responsibility to his fellow man.

WORSHIP
The school family grows in fellowship by coming together to worship God and by making a shared response to faith. Through daily prayer, Mass, preparation for and reception of the sacraments, we grow and are nourished in our life of faith.

SERVICE
Service is the end result of effective Catholic Education. The student realizes that love for God is reflected through love of and service to mankind. Such sensitivity to an awareness of the needs of others has always been a part of our traditions and values.
