School Philosophy


The primary goal of Our Mother of Mercy Catholic School is to carry out the education ministry of the Church founded by Christ. Through education, the school seeks to prepare its students to proclaim the Good News and to translate this proclamation into action. This requires education of the whole child: ACADEMIC *** developing the mind, guiding the intellect, and instilling the discipline to live and work in groups: RELIGIOUS *** enriching spirits and sanctifying moral life; and PHYSICAL *** developing muscular/motor coordination skills. Recognizing that each child is unique, the school seeks to provide conditions by which each child’s individual needs are met, enabling the student to maximize his or her potential.
