Holy Angels School is a welcoming, faith-filled community of lifelong learners and compassionate leaders, dedicated to academic excellence and committed to living out the Catholic values by following Christ's example through prayer, service, and love.
We serve students in Preschool(3 and 4yo) through 8th Grade.
We believe our primary role as a Catholic school is to provide all students with a holistic foundation for life through faith, prayer, academics, and service, and help all students learn how to use their gifts and talents to fulfill the plan God has for their lives.
We believe the Beatitudes are a spiritual and moral compass that allow us to mirror the love of God into the world.
We believe our words and actions reflect that every person is a valued child of God, worthy of love, dignity, and respect.
We believe the commitment to student learning is enhanced with clear goals, high expectations, and implementation of best practices to guide classroom instruction using technology and differentiated activities to support the learning needs of all students.
We believe personal growth is encouraged in a warm, loving environment that stresses self-discipline, self-respect, and caring for others in service to our community.We believe the partnership between school and family is essential to the development of the whole child and the school community.
