The educational mission of the Church is to teach the Good News and to create community while providing service to the entire human family.
The Catholic school teaches this message, fosters community, and models service.
Our schools have a clear focus as centers where the Church evangelizes, educates and contributes to the formation of a healthy and morally sound lifestyle.
In doing this the Catholic school fosters each individual's growth in personal holiness and his/her relationship to Christ.
The Catholic school is dedicated to academic excellence, reinforcing a sense of social concern, and encouraging a life balanced by social and physical activities.
The Catholic school also recognizes parents as the first and primary educators in a child's life.
Schools work with the parents and encourage them to participate in the decision-making processes affecting their children.
The Catholic school challenges clergy, parents, teachers, students and parish communities to work together in mutual trust, support, and dedication to the common goal of providing quality, religious and academic education for our children.
