Our Lady of Victory parish, through John F. Kennedy Catholic School and Guardian Angel Pre-School, provides a pre-school 8th grade Christ-centered, nurturing, caring, safe environment.
Acting as an extension of the family, the staff of JFK encourages all students to realize and reach their true potential.
Students are taught life skills and values, including to respect others, care for and help others, and to be accountable for their actions.
John F. Kennedy Catholic School, as the Roman Catholic School of Our Lady of Victory Parish, partners with families in accepting and loving children as unique gifts of God.
Through our caring and nurturing parish community, we will help all children identify and share their gifts and talents and develop a Christ-centered character, live their Catholic faith, and achieve academic excellence as they become disciples of Christ.
