Philosophy Of Sacred Heart Catholic School We belive that Sacred Heart School Community is a Catholic Faith Community where parent, children and faculty are a pilgrim people journeying with and toward God. We believe that parents are the primary educators of their children, who share responsibility with the school of handing on the Catholic fatih and its traditions to their children. We believe that the purpose of Catholic education is to teach doctrine, build community and serve others and that every Catholic has a right to such an education for living the fullness of Christian faith. We believe in the constant need to stimulate the spirit of inquiry, the acquisition of knowledge and understanding and the thoughtful formulation of worthy goals by both the home and school. We believe that teaching and learning are cooperative efforts among administrators, parents, teachers, and students in the mental, physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cultural development of youth. We believe that, as educators at Sacred Heart School, we create a safe Christian atmosphere and prmote moral and professional judgements that influence our parish community, the Church and the world.
