St. Ethelreda School
About Our School
Mission
The mission of St. Ethelreda School is to create a Christian educational community where human culture and knowledge, enlightened and enlivened by faith, is shared among teachers and students in a spirit of freedom and love.
Objectives
To accomplish this mission, our objectives are:
- To make known to each student the person and message of Jesus Christ and to develop an understanding of His Church.
- To provide all students with opportunities to develop moral and spiritual values, ethical standards of conduct, and the basic integrity they'll carry throughout life.
- To develop in all students a respect for themselves and for the rights of others.
- To enable students to acquire basic life skills.
- To help each student develop the power to think constructively, to solve problems, to reason independently, and to accept responsibility for self-evaluation and continuing self-instruction.
- To grow into a Christian faith community in which our faculty, student, and parents work together, respect themselves and each other, and show a real concern for others in the spirit of Christ's teaching.
