Goals and Objectives

The purpose of St. Agatha School is to provide our students, within a community of living faith and service, a Catholic philosophy of life in Jesus Christ. The school assists, not only the parents, but also the Church, in providing their children with opportunities to deepen and strengthen academic achievement in accordance with the Christian principles of wisdom, justice, brotherhood and morality.

We, as educators, consider that our mission is to prepare our students to proclaim the Gospel and to translate it into action. Thus, we incorporate two aims into our philosophy; helping our students to achieve self-fulfillment through loving service to society and attaining their own spiritual fulfillment. Our education seeks to develop students' potential, thus helping them accomplish all that is possible for them: becoming fully integrated, happy, loving, warm human beings.

We carry out our philosophy by striving to develop:
.

Spiritually vigorous Catholics instructed in and acting on Catholic principles, incorporating truth into their lives and awareness of the spiritual enrichment of the Sacraments
Intelligent human beings who have a desire for knowledge and an appreciation for scholastic achievement, who develop habits of logical thinking, thoroughness and persistence, and who master a body of knowledge appropriate to their age group, social background, and mental ability.
.

Emotionally adjusted individuals who behave in a manner appropriate to their age group and condition and who exhibit leadership qualities, self-esteem and respect toward others
.

Culturally oriented individuals who recognize beauty and appreciate music; art and literature
.

Healthy young adults of sound mind and body who are aware of the importance of personal hygiene, the value of physical activity and the necessity of practicing safety rules
.

Responsible citizens who cultivate democratic living by realizing their civic and moral obligations, who consider and serve the needs of others, including the less fortunate, and who recognize the value of cultures that differ from their own
