Saint Cecilia School is an extension of the ministry of the parish.

Saint Cecilia School challenges students to grow personally, accept social responsibility, foster positive relationships, and develop and share their gifts and talents.

We Believe as Catholics that each student is a valued person with unique needs: physical, social, emotional, intellectual and spiritual.

Students learn curriculum in different ways and need to be provided with a variety of learning experiences and instructional practices.

Teachers, administrators, parents, and the community share in the responsibility and commitment to encourage students to become self-directed and lifelong learners who live the Catholic Faith.
