MISSION STATEMENT

Build Faith . . .
St. Michael Academy strives to pass on and deepen faith in our children in
a Christ-centered educational environment.

Build Hearts . . .
St. Michael Academy nurtures love and mutual respect
among students, teachers, parents, and all who support our school
family, in order to spread the message of Jesus Christ in our homes,
our community, and our world.

Build Minds . . .
St. Michael Academy seeks to cultivate the intellectual development of
the minds of our students in accordance with Catholic values and to
create motivated, lifelong learners.

Build Bodies . . .
St. Michael Academy works to promote healthy lifestyle choices and fitness
through health and physical education and to provide opportunities for
physical development through curricular and extra-curricular
physical activities.

GOALS

  • To develop within the school a religious education program based on theology, scripture and liturgical experience that will help us guide each child in the growth and development of a Christian way of life.
     

  • To facilitate the intellectual, physical, emotional and social development of each child according to individual potentialities and the need for a positive self image.

  • To guide each child to emerge as a self-disciplined, self-reliant, socially conscious witness of Jesus.

  • To provide appropriate aspects of divergent instructional strategies such as flexible grouping, departmentalized classes and other opportunities for creativity, inquiry and discovery in learning.

  • To promote an awareness and appreciation of the important role each individual plays as a member of the global community.

PHILOSOPHY OF ST. MICHAEL ACADEMY

We believe that each child, created by God, is both alike and unique from every other human being. This uniqueness affects each child's acceptance and responsibility toward the school community, and it especially influences each one's learning styles.

In the light of similarities and differences among students, we strive to meet the academic needs, to satisfy the interests, and to develop the abilities of each child.

Further and foremost, our school teaches what it means to be a Catholic, to model one's life on Jesus Christ with the duties and responsibilities involved in living out His message, and with the joy and peace that flows from such fidelity.

We believe that the distinctive purpose of St. Michael Academy is to create a Christian Educational Community where human culture and knowledge, enlightened and enlivened by faith, is shared among teachers, students, families and others who are in our global community
