Our Philosophy:

We, the Christian Community of St. Patrick's School, believe that we have been called by God, to establish a school in which the Gospel values are taught and lived out by:

            ~ Affirming the values of high academic standards, responsibility, service, message and worship thus challenging students to use and develop their talents to the fullest;

            ~ A community of parents, students and teachers, sharing a common vision - one formed by the message of the Gospel;

            ~ Worship and celebrating our personal commitment to Jesus Christ in prayer, song, liturgy, sacrament and in religious instruction;

            ~ Encouraging our students to work independently and cooperatively with others in a respectful and peaceful manner;

            ~ Creating a family atmosphere within our school;

            ~ Educating our students to be aware of the global community while seeking to make their own school, neighborhood and local community a better place to live.


Therefore, we feel our philosophy is in accordance with the National Conference of Catholic Bishops - To Teach as Jesus Did.

"Catholic Education is an expression of the Church Jesus founded. Through education the Church seeks to prepare its members to proclaim the Good News and to translate this proclamation into all areas of the student's lives."

In summary, we strive on a daily basis to form a Christian Community where all of us can learn and live the Gospel values as taught by Jesus Christ.
