First and Second Grade

The primary goal of our lower elementary school is to relate learning to real life experiences.  Our ideals and goals center around the obligation of forming Catholic youth capable of assuming their responsibilities in the religious, academic, social, and civic communities.  Language arts, math, science, social studies and religion are adapted and integrated to the developmental needs and interests of young learners. Each first and second grade classroom consists of a teacher certified in Early Childhood education and a full time assistant.

Third and Fourth Grade

In third and fourth grades, emphasis is placed on the formation of the total child: mind, body, and spirit.  Our faculty is diverse in personality, yet united in principles. We practice the art of working, playing, and praying together. Our goal is to foster an enriched learning environment while modeling best practices in the classroom which leads to independent thinkers and doers. We help guide and nurture the students as they transition from the self-contained classroom (Grades PK3-3rd) to a departmentalized setting (Grades 4th-7th).

We are dedicated to maintaining an environment that is conducive to instilling an authentic self-esteem which comes through perseverance and achievement. It is our goal to develop in our students the indispensable quality of a positive work ethic.  The students work on mastering the skills necessary for success in the world in a collaborative setting.  It is our privilege to guide the students as they find success.
