From the Heart of the Mother to the Heart of the Son
Faith Life
While formal religious education takes place in religion classes, Christian values are reflected throughout the curriculum. Through regular worship as a school community, opportunities for prayer and reflection, joyful celebration of feast days and holys days, and a variety of projects aimed to serve the poor, the seeds of faith, love and responsibility to the “least favored” have the opportunity to take root in the lives of students.
