Student Growth
A Catholic education encourages students to grow intellectually, spiritually, emotionally, socially, and physically. A Catholic environment promotes high moral, ethical and intellectual standards for all students.

Faith formation begins in the home. Parents [and guardians] teach and lead their children to Christ through daily prayer and living according to the Word of God.
Talents and Faith
Faculty and students use their talents and faith to be Christ-like while serving each other, the community, and the world.
The Right
All children have a right to safety, love, and a faith-based education. All children have a right to deepend their relationship with Jesus through prayer and sacraments.
Responsibility
Education is a responsibility shared by the student, the familt, the faculty, and the parish community.
