The St. Augustine School Community believes that all children are unique gifts and creations of God with individual needs and abilities.
We believe in the development of the whole child ( mind, body, spirit ), based on Catholic values as expressed in the Gospels.
The faculty, in partnership with the family, parish, and community, strives to provide a foundation which encourages and enables our children to develop to their highest potential self-discipline, respect for self and others, academic skills and knowledge, a love of learning for learning's sake, and the ability to think creatively and problem solvein order that they might become productive members of God's universe, responsible citizens of a free society, and active, participating members of the Catholic Church.
