In accordance with our Mission,
we believe that Catholic Education is important as it develops an awareness of
who Jesus is and how to live by His teachings.
We challenge students to reach their full potential by recognizing their
individual needs and educating the total child with the involvement of the
family, the first teachers of the child, and the community.

EXCELLENCE IN ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT
A Catholic education is a challenging education.
High standards, strong motivation, effective discipline and an atmosphere of
caring combine to foster excellence, and, a high quality of student performance
is supported by the evidence. Catholic School students score significantly
above the national averages on standardized testing. Research shows that because of a greater
emphasis on homework and study, Catholic School students develop more effective
writing skills. Catholic High School
students attend post-secondary education at a rate in excess of 95% and are
more likely to complete their program of studies. Catholic Schools have an
excellent success rate in educating minority students. While providing a stimulating and demanding
education, Catholic Schools give students a high level of individualized
attention and personal sharing. This
commitment is reinforced by participation in programs for advanced students and
also for those experiencing difficulties in reading, writing, and math.
