The personal
development of each child takes place
in an atmosphere of respect and trust which enables the child to
progress
toward a meaningful, responsible and fulfilling life.
SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT of
each child takes place through the use of a sequentially planned
religious
studies program. Planning and
participating in weekly liturgies and other prayer opportunities
provide the
academic and spiritual bonding needed as a faith community to further
the
students' awareness of their personal and social responsibilities.
INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT of
each child is fostered in the elementary grades with emphasis on the
basic
skills. These skills are developed
through a variety of methods, which meet the child's level of
achievement in
preparation for the higher-level thinking and decision-making skills
needed for
life.
SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT of each
child evolves as the child learns to respect self and others, and to
accept the
obligations of being a member of his/her family, school, church and
larger
societies.
PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT of each child is pursued through teaching
acceptance of the human body as a gift from God, imposing
responsibilities for
care and reverence towards all of God's creation.
