The parents, faculty, staff, administration and pastors are committed to providing our children with guidance through the way of Christ and empower them with a deep Catholic faith and academic excellence.
Our goal is that our children will go forth into the community as leaders and examples of the Gospel.
Conn Area Catholic School is established to further these goals.
The program stands on two guiding principles: one religious, one academic.
The first principle is to help the children understand and appreciate their Catholic faith in an environment in which the gospel message, as interpreted by the Catholic Church, is lived.
The second principle is to challenge the children's potential academically by providing a flexible curriculum and stimulating learning environmentally to encourage them to develop their talents to the fullest.
By doing so, the program strives to make the children's religious undertaking and conviction the motivational force that will guide them in their maturation and to make their academic curiosity so vibrant that it will guide them into further study.
The end result we seek through this program at Conn Area Catholic School is knowledgeable young men and women with deep religious Catholic conviction who will be a credit to themselves and their families and a blessing to their communities.
