St. Catherine of Siena School is an elementary school in the Diocese of Manchester steeped in its Catholic tradition, striving to instill in our young people the values of faith.
Our school exists for the purpose of fostering academic excellence through its comprehensive program and developing a community of faith among faculty, staff and students.Young people are encouraged to acquire knowledge and to deepen their faith in preparation for their future role in the Church and in the world.
Our foremost goal is to attempt to meet the individual's needs: moral, socially, educationally, emotionally and, in particular, to develop a sense of responsibility to the Church, to him or herself and to others.
We strive to build a Faith Community which will reach out beyond the walls of the school building to include all people, and to achieve academic excellence.
Our most important instrument, in trying to achieve our goal, is the faculty, whose members have a deep sense of the Gospel message of Christ.
