Teachers go the extra mile to ensure no slower student is left behind and no advanced student goes unchallenged.

 

Scholastically challenged and advanced students are encouraged and guided to blossom into the best they can be. Class sizes are small with an average student-teacher ratio of 14:1.

​

Students in grades 2-8 are assessed three times a year using the NWEA MAP Testing. NWEA MAP Growth is the most trusted and innovative assessment for measuring achievement and growth in K-12 math, reading, language usage, and science that supports students and educators worldwide by creating assessment solutions that precisely measure growth and proficiency - and provide insights to help tailor instruction.

Students of all faiths welcome.

 

Christ is an integral part of school life as students are taught in the Catholic religion. Children learn about Jesus and can grow in a personal relationship with Him.

 

Benefits include:  Learning to be reverent.  Learning the value of symbolism, and recognizing its use.  Learning to be confident in proclaiming His word and recognizing kindness and love for others.  Learning  to represent their class by serving  and speaking in front of a group. Spending a quiet hour in the chapel  or the celebrating  Student Mass on Fridays separates students from the excessive stimulation of our modern world, and teaches them how to indulge in the gift of quiet. These are tangible benefits from Catholic religious education.
