We believe that our mission as Catholic educators in a changing world is to provide for the formation of the whole child, fostering spiritual, intellectual, social, physical, and aesthetic growth by implementing the spirit of the document, “To teach as Jesus did.” SPBS exists for the purpose of educating and encouraging Catholic students to be self-motivated learners who acknowledge the importance of intellectual growth as well as the necessity of becoming the best person they can be, maximizing the gifts and talents God has given them.
We believe that an active relationship of the school with the families and the large parish community is an integral part of training our students for a positive role in society.
We are committed to providing a sound education involving a well-rounded curriculum containing the basics with an emphasis on creativity and experiential activities that will benefit our children now and in their future.
