St. John-Sacred Heart Philosophy Statement
We believe that parents are the primary educators of their children and that the school provides the facility, the resources, and the personnel that contributes to the child's ongoing education. We believe the role of the teacher is to facilitate and enchance each child's foundation of knowledge, instructing in a manner that recognizes individual talents and learning styles. We believe that the curriculum revolves around the religious dimension of the school, focusing on instruction, prayer, service and community. We are a sacramental community united in the Eucharist. We believe that the school's curriculum must enable each child to develop his/her intellectual, physical, spirtual, moral, aesthetic, emotional, and social skills. We believe the role of the school is to develop skills that encourage our students to become life-long learners, who make educated decisions rooted in Catholic values, and who function as contributing members of the community. |
