St. Catherine of Siena Catholic School provides a learning community of faith that shapes the souls and hearts of students to know God, to see their own goodness, and to have respect for all God’s creation.
St. Catherine of Siena School forms youth capable of assuming their responsibilities in society while facilitating a multi-faceted approach to excellence in education that recognizes individual student needs in a disciplined yet loving environment.
In attaining the skills necessary to assume these responsibilities, it is essential that students develop a positive self-image and find happiness and success in a nurturing educational environment.
As students are involved with interesting materials, challenging questions, and meaningful experiences, they become independent thinkers increasingly accountable for their own learning.
In this atmosphere, students develop a love for learning that will continue into their adult lives enabling them to grow into responsible, productive Christian citizens, thereby realizing their full potential.
