Our school theme for the 2019-2020 school year is, “
We are the NOW of God: Using Our Strengths To Live As Disciples.” As we continue to develop our accreditation goals this year, we will continue to expand and develop our students’ understanding of how God made us all as unique and creative individuals with different strengths and talents. As Catholics we are called to use these gifts to further God’s mission on earth. Through prayer, reflection and meditation, we will strive to creatively and innovatively use our strengths to make a positive difference in our world.
