MOTTO |
Putting Faith In Education! |
PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION |
While parents are the primary educators, the school shares with the parents the responsibility of developing a faith in God which is viable and meaningful in each child. To accomplish this mission, we believe it is important for each child to reach his or her fullest potential by developing every facet of life: spiritual, physical, intellectual and emotional. The school, therefore, strives to enable each child to grow in faith, develop a personal relationship with God, and celebrate his/her ability to serve one another, as Jesus would. By instilling Christian values, attitudes, and actions and by expecting academic excellence from all children, we develop the future stewards of our Catholic Faith. |
