Overview
Our school mission is leading to God the Father through His son Jesus Christ with the guidance of the Holy Spirit working together for academic excellence in an atmosphere of thanksgiving and worship, the gospel message, service to others and building Catholic community.
The Holy Family Catholic School is a partnership between parents, school and parish staff.
This partnership focuses on the spiritual growth of our children in their Catholic faith.
In order to enhance this experience, parents and families must actively put their own faith into practice both at home and at Church, including regular Mass attendance and reception of the sacraments.
Demonstrations of commitment to the teachings of the Church through the volunteering of time, talent and treasure to the parish as well as the school help to nurture our children's developing faith as well as our own.
