Discovering Today's Catholic Schools
This week we celebrate Catholic education. I would like to share some information about Catholic education from the National Catholic Educational Association, NCEA.
What are Some Benefits of Catholic Schools?
- The integration of faith with academic subjects, culture, and everyday life
- The emphasis of living out the faith as missionary disciples
- Catholic virtues and values and Catholic Social Teaching, which contribute to productive citizenship and responsible leadership
- An environment that encourages and nurtures prayer and is safe, welcoming, and supportive for children
- A favorable student to teacher ratio
- Teacher commitment
Saint Bridget School strives to provide these benefits for each and every student. As we strive to fulfill our mission I ask you for your continued support. Thank you for choosing Catholic education for your child, and for choosing Saint Bridget School!
God Bless,
Matthew Collins
Principal
