School Notes
- We would like to take this opportunity to share a little of what makes Newman such an extraordinary place. It starts with a commitment to our mission: to form disciples to lead, love, and serve.
- The focus of our mission is embedded in all aspects of our school culture. You will see it in the classroom as teachers create a Christian environment with a focus on individual learning. Our mission is evident during extra-curricular events as we start with prayer. It is also apparent in the behavior of our students and coaches as they compete. More importantly, you will see the mission alive in our students as they walk our halls or give back to the community in service.
- As a part of the Newman family, students are given both structure and freedom. The structure needed to guide them on their path of faith and academic growth. The freedom that allows the individual to explore who they are in a caring, supportive atmosphere. Students at Newman benefit from the many opportunities seen in a larger school, while experiencing the one-to-one approach of a small school.
- For over 50 years, Newman Catholic has provided a strong foundation in faith and academics.
