We maintain a spiritual focus through service projects and dramatizations of Scripture during Christmas and Lenten seasons, and frequent planning of and participation in Liturgies and paraliturgies.
Additionally we maintain high expectations and encourage each student to set goals that will allow them to achieve his/her highest potential.
We accomplish this through adherence to curriculum guidelines, updated textbooks and audio-visual materials, multifaceted instruction and learning opportunities such as oral and written assignments, group work and projects, cooperative learning and peer tutoring.
Consistency of assignments and clarity of work from one grade level to another is maintained.
Our graduates are outstanding and contributing members of our local community.
