School Mission & Philosophy:

Mission Statement:

St. Catherine of Siena School is deeply committed to creating a welcoming environment that ties generations of students, alumni, and parishioners together into a life-long community by developing the whole child through the nurturing of the Roman Catholic faith, fostering of Gospel values, and providing a strong foundation for academic excellence.

School Philosophy:

St. Catherine of Siena Parish School, filled with faith and energized by the charism that the Holy Spirit entrusted to the congregation of the Sacro Costato Missionary Sisters, is called and committed to teach as Jesus did, so that by following His example, our students will grow to be people of service with and for others.

This philosophy is at the core of St. Catherine of Siena School's mission statement which promises to empower students to achieve their highest potential of being active Christians, responsible citizens, life-long learners, and well-rounded individuals through an integrated program of spiritual, academic, and extra-curricular activities. We emphasize the development of a strong, faith-filled community that is a carrier of hope and spark of light and kindness.

In partnership with parents, who have the role of primary educators, as well as the Archdiocesan curriculum standards and guidelines, we prepare the students to demonstrate the ability to think critically, act creatively and integrate Gospel values to develop an understanding of the Roman Catholic Church's teaching about Jesus Christ and its mission and traditions.
