Our Lady Of Guadalupe is a Catholic school, founded in 1923, whereby Christianity is the foundation of our philosophy.
Our primary goal is to allow each child to grow in a faith relationship with Jesus.
As educators, we strive to build this relationship with God through daily religion lessons, school masses, prayer services, and programs of Christian service.
The students of Our Lady of Guadalupe are taught by dedicated educators who believe that each student has been given his or her own unique talents and gifts.
We stress a balance of intellectual knowledge and skills with the social, personal and physical activities that occur within a normal school year.
We believe as educators that knowledge is cumulative and skills taught are based on the foundation of learning received in previous grades.
Teachers make allowances for individual learning needs of students through the use of the remedial reading room and resource center, as well as in their own classrooms.
Our Lady of Guadalupe has consistently supported the appropriate inclusion of children with special needs into the regular classes.
