Mission and Philosophy

Mission

St. Walter-St. Benedict School is a Catholic School dedicated to developing each child spiritually, intellectually, morally, physically, and emotionally. We partner with families so that each child will achieve personal success, develop in faith as well as social/emotional growth, and embrace a growth mindset to be a life-long learner.

Philosophy

We believe that St. Walter-St. Benedict School, as a Catholic school, shares in the three-fold mission of Jesus Christ – to proclaim the gospel message, to foster community, and to serve humankind.


We believe that a creative and supportive atmosphere challenges and motivates students to realize their potential – spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, and physically. Through worship, sharing, accepting and living in the school environment, students may better live in and serve the total community.


We believe that parents are an integral part of this educational process and recognize the importance of their cooperation and partnership in this endeavor.

 

We believe fostering a faith-filled community is a primary importance and witness this through active participation in church life at school and at home.
