School Notes Overview: |
The mission of Archbishop Shaw High School is to provide a program that furthers the college preparatory education of its students in a manner consistent with the Doctrines of Catholic education and in the context of the Salesian philosophy and teachings of St. John Bosco as manifested in his Preventive System of Education: reason, religion and kindness. At the core of the school’s philosophy is the Salesian Educational System of Saint John Bosco, who emphasized the importance of creating a family-like atmosphere rooted in kindness and cheerfulness. The name he gave to his approach, the Preventive System, is based on three key principles of reason, religion, and loving kindness. To this end, educators strive to build a personalized rapport with the students, which consists of friendliness and affirmation, while at the same time carefully providing for disciplined structures that promote self-discipline.
