A Covey “Leader in Me” School

 

Our Mission

The mission of St. Theresa School is to provide a Catholic education consistent with the fundamental beliefs of the Church.  Following the Gospel of Jesus and the example of St. Theresa’s “Little Way”.  Our school emphasizes personal growth, social responsibility, and moral character development to create independent life-long learners for the modern globally connected world.

Belief Statements:

  • Our primary responsibility is to educate the whole person: spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and physically.

  • We embrace and respect diversity as a positive influence on the development of moral character.

  • Differentiated instruction enhances student achievement because children learn at various rates and in multiple modalities.

  • Life-long instruction is essential for personal growth and future success in a changing global society.

  • Parent-school partnership is critical in educating the whole person.

  • As followers of Jesus, our educational community is called to model the Catholic identity through work and example.

What is a “Leader In Me” School?

St. Theresa School and the Faith and Family Foundation have launched a partnership to engage in a leadership training initiative at the school based on the Stephen Covey “Seven Habits of Highly Effective People”.  This program integrates these habits into the everyday activities of the school community and encourages all members of the school community from Kindergarten to Grade 8 to develop and adopt leadership principles that empower them to help make the school environment a dynamic goal oriented learning center.    Join us in helping us raise up young men and women who are leaders in the classroom, at home, and in their communities.
