MISSION & PHILOSOPHY

Mission Statement

The mission of Saint Ann School is to create an environment where high levels of academic excellence and personal growth and development are achieved through the spiritual, intellectual, social, and emotional nurturing of its children. Each child at Saint Ann School benefits from an environment which offers the unconditional love and acceptance so very necessary to lead a life of purpose and self-worth.

The school prepares children for a successful entry into the world by fostering strong Catholic values, stressing personal commitment to others, and teaching the principles of democracy and the rights and responsibilities of citizenship through the mutual involvement of school, family, parish and community.

Philosophy

Saint Ann School is a center in which parents and teachers, guided by the Holy Spirit, collaborate in giving children a complete Catholic education. The strength of this school is based on the mutual support of parents, teachers, and students in building a faith community. Through our religious education program we nurture strong Christian values and foster the development of Christian critical thinking. In this way we prepare students to enter into an ever-changing society, and to contribute Christian values to it.

In striving to achieve these goals, we as educators continually strive to be professional, dedicated, prepared, and available in our mission to lead, teach, and guide our students.
