WHAT WE BELIEVE

Students praying inside St. Peter's Church

God is in all things and calls each of us to grow in His love.

Our school nourishes an atmosphere of respect, care, understanding, and patience where all feel safe and loved as precious children of God.

Every child is capable of success. 

When given the tools and resources necessary, from love, care and attention to tangible materials, every child has the means and ability to learn.

We are a family—somos una familia—with parents, students and educators working together. 

Parents are the first teachers for their children. Working together with educators, a child’s learning experiences can be enhanced.

Teacher working with students

All students and educators will learn and grow academically, physically, spiritually, emotionally, and socially. 

In order for students to grow holistically, their educators must always be open to learning and improving.

We are called to serve others and our world. 

Inspired by the example of our founders, the Sisters of Mercy, we extend God’s compassion to meet the needs of our broken world.
