School Motto
Cultivating Intellect, Faith and Integrity
PHILOSOPHY
In keeping with the Vatican’s recommendations on Catholic education, we believe that parents are the primary teachers of their children. Our faculty and staff partners with our parents in providing a safe and nurturing environment for their child to achieve his/her personal potential as a human being, a constructive participant in society and member of the Church. We hold to the highest regard the development of the whole child: intellectual, physical, spiritual, social-emotional, and cultural dimension of his/ her personality. Through an inclusive environment and the integration of the Casel Five Social Emotional Learning Framework, we foster knowledge, skills, and attitude that prepare students for academic learning and development. We value each member of our school community and foster individual growth in the virtues of faith, hope, and love as we prepare students to become “virtuous leaders of society.” Our mission and philosophy is fluid whether our students are in-person or learning virtually. Through the home-school partnership, the St. Anne Catholic School community will:
