"Catholic Hearts- Global Minds," is Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha
Parish School`s philosophy. Our aim is to provide an outstanding
academic education infused with the best values of the church. We
recognize Catholic education as a powerful response to the
difficulties in our community and so seek to open the doors wide,
inviting a diverse population to share the gifts our school has to
offer.Our school should live up to the highest academic standards.
No student should sacrifice educational excellence to receive the
other benefits of a Catholic education. We strongly believe that
our added responsibilities of teaching religion and participating
in prayer do not disadvantage us, but indeed strengthen us and that
this environment, grounded in prayer and faith, is pivotal to our
students` success.This vision is only possible by attracting and
retaining a superb team of administrators and faculty to be
stewards of our school, committed to the children and to membership
in the Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha Family. We believe our atmosphere
of intimacy and co-responsibility for the well being of Blessed
Kateri Tekakwitha Parish School is reflected in our small size. It
is the result of a purposeful and determined effort to let all know
they count and matter. We are proud to be a parochial school,
cherishing our relationship with the parish, being cherished in
return. We honor our 60 years of history and the Sisters of the
Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary for their heritage to
us.Finally, we are an evangelizing school that delights in telling
our story to others, wherever they may be, so they can share in the
Good News. Jesus is made known in our classrooms and hallways, so
that he might be better found in the homes and the streets of our
children.
