St Luke Catholic School's mission is to educate our students to excel in high school and in life, and to inspire our students to live as faith-filled Catholics.
Our philosophy of education flows from the Christian belief that each child is created in God's image and redeemed in Christ, and has a transitory destiny on earth and an eternal destiny with God in heaven.
Hence, the school proposes to compliment the home, church, and state in giving dignity, direction and motivation to all phases of the students lives, and to prepare them spiritually, intellectually, psychologically, socially, physically, and morally to take their places in American contemporary society as mature Christians.
A St. Luke Catholic School education prepare students to be intelligent, practical Catholics, good citizens, and worthy members of society, the church, and the home.
