Philosophy The primary goal is the
education and formation of each individual child striving for academic excellence within a faith-centered environment. We
strive to develop within each child a deep appreciation of his or her role in family life, obligation towards fellow man and
good citizenship. This is achieved through worship, instruction, and example in unison with the parent, clergy, administration
and faculty. Our
philosophy gives direction to this mission and reflects the needs, values and purposes of the school community.
