Office of Catholic Schools - Catholic Identity

Catholic identity is integral to every concept of the Catholic school and not an added component. It is expressed in the daily experiences and interaction of students, faculty, and administrators. It permeates the spirit and climate of each Catholic school.

It is through daily prayer, prayer services, school liturgies, the sacraments, the integration of morals and values in academic studies, individual deportment, social interaction, and service to others that the school expresses its identity and reflects Jesus' message of love.

The school's mission statement emanates the basic philosophy for the school's existence. It is the mission statement that gives form to all decision-making and interaction. It is reflected in the school's programs, culture, faculty, students, and parents. Rooted in the Gospel, it exemplifies the identity of the Catholic school.
