Theology

The parents are the first teachers of the Faith for their children. Our Theology curriculum is built to assist the parents in the formation of their children. Faithful to the teachings of the Catholic Church, we seek to form children in the practice of prayer, virtue, celebration of the sacraments, and catechesis.

Language Arts

Language is the student’s most important tool, for without language there would be no communication. Catholic schools seek to help in developing communication skills—listening, speaking, reading and writing. English (grammar/writing), Reading/Literature, and Spelling/Vocabulary are taught at all levels of the curriculum. Phonics is taught in preschool through third grade and Handwriting is taught in preschool through fifth grade.

Fine Arts

One pathway to God is beauty. The children receive formal instruction in music and art each week, as well as exposure to beautiful works of art throughout the subjects, as well as through the beauty of the liturgy at daily Mass.

Math

The purpose of mathematics instruction in our Catholic schools is to prepare students to effectively use mathematics in society, to reflect the ethics and teaching of the Catholic Church and to appreciate patterns in the world God created. 

Nature Studies

The study of nature enables students in our Catholic schools to recognize God in creation. Aspects of life science, physical science, health and earth science are covered in grades PreK-8.

History

The philosophy of the history program in our Catholic schools is based on an understanding that all persons are made in the image and likeness of God and are destined for eternal life. History ultimately explores the interaction between God in His Providence and mankind in his response to God’s initiatives. The history content helps us find our place as individuals in the plan of God.
