Through careful attendance to their day-to-day activities we foster in them virtue formed from well-developed habits in manners, speech, and dress. We feed their soul with theology courses, the sacraments, and other Catholic devotional exercises. We strengthen their minds with the classical thoughts and works of the greatest thinkers throughout the ages.

The biggest contribution to our nurturing classroom environments is that Jesus is a part of each one. His presence is sense in the way students treat each other, the symbols and imagery around the walls, and the care of the instructors. Christian education is so much more than just the three R's.
