Overview
St. Norbert School is a community of families rooted in faith and committed to promote academic excellence, nurture faith, and inspire action based on the person and message of Jesus.
In the context of a caring, worshipping parish community we endeavor to empower students to be educated, morally responsible citizens, dedicated to God's word, to worship, and to service.
The teachers, staff and parents of La Purisima Catholic School are dedicated to provide for the formation of the whole child; spiritually, morally, physically, emotionally, and academically.
We strive to help our children become disciples of our Church and confident, responsible and creative leaders of our community. Teachers and staff partner with the parents, as the primary educators of their children, to instruct our students in an atmosphere of cooperation that respects individual differences and cultural traditions.
Through a Christ-centered program, we endeavor to provide opportunities for our students to acquire the skills needed to meet the demands of the present, while preparing them for the challenges of tomorrow.
