St. Dominic School is a Catholic Christian education community and an active part of the local Churches, St. Dominic and St. Francis, and the Diocese of Joliet.

It provides its students with an integration of quality education and experiences in Christian worship and living through a functional curriculum which addresses all aspects of a person's growth and development in a technological society.

Students are encouraged and challenged to develop their spiritual, academic, emotional, social and physical potentials.

A natural outgrowth of this development is that students become viable, active witnesses to Jesus by hearing the Word in worship, proclaiming the Word in action, actively participating in the community parish lives of St. Dominic and St. Francis parishes, and committing to Christian service.

With the active involvement of parents, who are the primary educators, we arrive to achieve our distinctive purpose: to create a school community where human culture and knowledge, enlivened by faith is shared in a family atmosphere among parents, priests, teachers, students and the parish family faith communities and organizations in a spirit of freedom and love.
