WELCOME
More
than ever at this time in our history, we need
Catholic education for our children. It is often
said that our children are the future. This is true
because we want our children to live in a world of
peace and prosperity.
How can we prepare our children for such a future
which benefits both them and ourselves? Catholic
education at St. Ann School is unique in that we can
integrate a student’s educational experience with
religious truth and values. This concept
distinguishes St. Ann Catholic School from all other
schools.
A child learns best in a safe, structured and
nurturing environment. St. Ann Catholic School takes
this fundamental philosophy and enhances the
academic program with teachings of the Catholic
Church. Therefore the learning environment becomes a
setting where academic, emotional, social, physical
and spiritual growth is realized with our faith
community. That is why we say that St. Ann Catholic
School is education of mind, body and spirit!
Students at St. Ann Catholic School learn that they
are part of a much larger community. In this light,
they learn that we must be of service to each other
and to be part of a solution rather than be part of
the problem. The Catholic school is a living
testimony to the millions of Christians that Jesus
is alive in his community and is continuing his
promise to strengthen each of us “with the utter
fullness of God.”
As part of a good well-rounded education, St. Ann
School students come to understand the profound
relationship between faith and culture. They are
able to recognize the positive and negative elements
in our world – to participate in the former and to
resist the latter. The result of a Catholic
education provides students with critical thinking
skills, a love for learning and a true appreciation
for family values, respect for one another and a
determination to follow the Word of God.
