Holy Spirit School
The Holy Spirit School Ministry provides a well-rounded pre-kindergarten through eighth grade education that is grounded in our Catholic tradition, imbued with a love of learning, committed to developing an individual's gifts, directed toward responsible citizenship and fostered with charity and justice in a caring Christian community.
Our curriculum focuses on educating the whole child in the realms of academic, emotional, intellectual, moral, physical, social, and spiritual growth.
It is a total education experience that occurs in stages over time, with the complete set of curriculum objectives being achieved by the end of eighth grade.
Education is the revealing, nurturing, and enhancing of an individual's talents and abilities, which he/she will be able to share as a contributing member of the community.
