In an atmosphere that strongly emphasizes Christian ideals, Holy Spirit exists for the purpose of providing our parish and community Catholic education.
This atmosphere integrates the Catholic message into an educational curriculum that nurtures the gift of faith, promotes self-discipline and responsibility to self and others.
We strive to prepare each child to be a responsible Christian citizen. The faculty realizes that parents are the first and most important teachers of their children and that they assist parents in educating their children.
Holy Spirit School adheres to the Diocese of Columbus kindergarten through eighth grade course of study, which has been approved by the Ohio Department of Education. Application of sound educational policies and procedures by a well-qualified staff and adherence to a competency-based educational program, promote academic excellence.
