GOALS
St. Mary’s
School has a three-fold purpose: to teach, to build community, and
to serve. We are then committed to the following goals:
- The
student will grow in the knowledge and love of God and of the
Church through prayer, good example, and service. S/he will be
able to make correct moral choices based upon Christian values,
and be able to distinguish right from wrong.
- The
student will be able to think critically, i.e. assess a
situation, utilize prior knowledge, generate alternatives, make
a logical and reasonable judgment, implement the plan and
evaluate the result.
- The
student will learn a variety of academic and practical skills,
enabling him/her to become a capable person in a wide range of
life situations.
- The
student will develop an understanding and respect for the
world’s various cultures and demonstrate an appreciation for the
richness that cultural diversity brings to our human experience.
