About Our Lady of Grace School

Our Mission and Core Values

 

Mission Statement

Our Lady of Grace School, with the support of the school families, dedicated faculty, and the entire parish community of Our Lady of Grace, cultivates academic excellence and Catholic values within a distinctive educational framework. The major goal is to prepare students to respond to the challenges in their lives by:

  • Providing quality instruction.
  • Encouraging students to lead “Christ-Centered lives”.
  • Developing a consciousness of the family of God by providing service to others.

 

Philosophy Statement

An integral extension of the mission of Our Lady of Grace Parish, Our Lady of Grace School is an example of community faith in action. We instill in all students their responsibility as part of a Catholic community to visibly illustrate to the world the ministry of Jesus Christ.

All students entrusted to our care are challenged academically and physically while being nurtured in their spiritual and moral value development.

The students will take with them the knowledge that Christ’s ministry can only be accomplished through the sharing of the gifts that God has given to each individual.
