We are dedicated to the education of the whole child through the spiritual and the academic growth of our students. We are Catholic inside & out. Catholic values are built-in to all areas of our curriculum. We are focused on the mission of Jesus and our call to evangelize. Our teachers believe that the classroom environment is an important tool for helping children learn. Room arrangements and daily schedules,while carefully designed, are flexible.
