Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I send my children to a Catholic school?
As a parent, you want the best education for your child, not only in terms of academics but also an environment where he or she will grow in and practice the Catholic faith, and excel to the fullest of his or her potential. While you have many alternatives and choices to meet these goals, a Catholic school education offers the "fullest and best opportunity to realize the fourfold purpose of Christian education, namely to provide an atmosphere in which the Gospel message is proclaimed, community in Christ is experienced, service to our sisters and brothers is the norm, and thanksgiving and worship of God is cultivated." (Renewing Our Commitment, 2005)
What types of financial aid are available to help me send my child to Catholic school?
I'm not Catholic. Can I still send my child to a Catholic School?
Yes! While Catholic schools maintain a strong Catholic identity through the teaching of our faith tradition according to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the term "catholic" (meaning universal) recognizes that our schools should be available to non-Catholic students who wish to attend.
We know that parents, regardless of religious affiliation, want their child to learn in the best environment, which will stimulate them academically and foster character and values. Catholic schools offer exactly this and more!
