St Mary (Nativity) School

The Purpose and Philosophy

Be it known to all that enter here that Jesus Christ is the reason for this school. He is the unseen-presence, yet the ever-present teacher in its classes. He is the model of its faculty and the inspiration of its students.

The Philosophy which embodies the vision of St Mary (Nativity) School -- faculty, staff and administration is expressed in our desire to realize the uniqueness of each student as a gift from God. We believe that each child should be taught to develop a strong foundation of the Catholic Faith and of Christian values. Therefore, we attempt to teach each child to live and apply the teachings of the Catholic Faith within the community.

The faculty, staff, administration and families seek to work together to provide an educational environment within which these goals can be realized. We attempt to encourage each student to perform to the best of their ability and develop their own unique talents as each strives to grow spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially and physically.
