As a God-centered community of faith and education we teach Jesus’ message of love,truth, respect, fellowship, reconciliation, self-discipline and hope. Our school prepares children to integrate these values into their ongoing
relationships with God, family, peers, and church.
We recognize that every child is a unique gift in God’s Plan. St. Katharine Drexel teachers and  accept their responsibility to nurture the personal, spiritual, academic, moral, social, emotional and physical development of every child entrusted to our care.


PHILOSOPHY OF SCHOOL
It is the aim of St. Katharine Drexel School to provide a Catholic educational setting in which our students and their families can integrate Gospel values in daily living. We strive to create a climate in which each child can develop spiritually, intellectually, physically,emotionally, and socially, and in turn, enhance the world.

Each child will develop an understanding of Catholic Doctrine, Liturgy, the Sacraments, Sacred Scripture, and Personal Prayer to build a personal relationship with Christ and His Church.

All children will be provided with challenging yet realistic goals to achieve their full potential.
Individual learning styles and rates of achievement will be recognized.
Each child will receive guidance in developing sound attitudes and habits for both mental and physical health.

Each child will develop a Christian awareness of responsibility to God, family, parish, community, nation and world.
