Spalding Catholic Schools is a Christ-centered educational community dedicated to the development of the whole child.

We believe that parents are the primary educators of their children; it is their right and duty to educate them.

Spalding Catholic Schools aid parents with this responsibility by providing a faith atmosphere that is supportive of the Christian family values.

Our vision of the graduate of Spalding Catholic Schools is one who is committed to Christian values, has a strong sense of self-esteem, and respects the uniqueness of others.

We believe the classroom should be a caring community, a special learning environment where the unique person hood of each child is respected and nurtured.

We believe the major goal of education is the development of the child's ability to make moral decisions and to act accordingly.

The mission of Spalding Catholic Schools is to instill a belief in God and self, and provide excellence in learning through mutual support, service and Catholic leadership.
