Our School's Philosophy
As an academic faith community reaching for excellence, we at St. Cletus School commit ourselves to develop within our students a strong sense of faith community based on Catholic doctrine and Christian values. Students will be encouraged to dream and envision the future, with all the possibilities and challenges allowed to them to make a difference. As a part of our faith community, parents are encouraged to participate in the spiritual, intellectual and social development of their children.
We recognize the diverse talents and individual learning styles within our school children.
Each child will be respected as a unique person with special gifts, talents and limitations. In partnership with our school families, we will strive to provide opportunities for each child to deepen their respect for themselves, for each other, for our community and for the world. We will create a climate within the school and parish that will enable children to build on their life experiences and to become problem solvers who witness their faith in an ever changing world. We will attempt to have students use their gifts by making socially just, responsible and creative decisions that can impact their environment now and in the future. We will stress the importance of living a life nurtured by prayer. We will promote activities that foster Catholic leadership and service for their students. We will encourage active participation in community social services.
