Our Lady of Providence School has a wonderful, welcoming spirit, a sense of community, and high academic expectations.

We are, however, first and foremost a community of believers. Passing on our Faith is our ministry and we- teachers, parents, parishioners- work together to create an atmosphere that is Christ and child centered. It does, indeed, take a whole parish to educate a child.

The teachers strive to teach as Jesus did, creating a caring and supportive classroom environment to nurture students in their spiritual, academic, personal, and social development. They seek out opportunities for professional development by actively pursuing resources in the community to attain new information and skills. These professionals adjust curriculum content, instructional activities and assessments to address each individual student’s learning needs. Our Learning Consultant and our Counselor provide additional resources and work with teachers, students and parents to provide a seamless approach to learning.

When our children leave Our Lady of Providence School they are well prepared for the challenges that await them in high school. Our graduates are successful in college and as adults, make meaningful contributions to the communities in which they live and beyond.

We are proud of our students and Our Lady of Providence School, where every child is known by heart. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call.

 

 

 

 

PHILOSOPHY

Our Lady of Providence School Community is dedicated to helping students develop and maintain the self-confidence and spirituality to meet the challenges of life. We believe that our faith is inseparably intertwined with the diligent and thorough pursuit of academic excellence, enabling our students to solve problems, dream dreams, achieve success, and grow in wisdom and grace to reach their fullest potential.

We support parents as the first teachers and foremost catechists of their children. As teachers, we amplify these lessons through word and example. In addition, we challenge these same children to grow as self-teachers, life-long learners, and proclaimers of the gospel. Indeed, we recognize that our entire parish community, in the generosity and witness of its members, is the wide classroom in which these lessons come to be learned.

As a community, we accept our responsibility to provide an atmosphere conducive both to scholastic achievment and the realization that Christ is the perfect model for living daily life.

We have a vision of graduates who:

• Love God and accept His unconditional love for them
• Respect all of God’s creation
• Respond to God’s call within their community
• Face the realities of society with compassion
• Use faith principles to facilitate social justice
• Welcome and show appreciation for diversity of religion, race,
  gender, physical condition, culture and experience
• Seek to realize their greatest potential
• Enjoy the satisfaction of a job well done
• View failure and criticism as opportunities for growth
• Apply independent decision-making skills
• Implement technology with efficiency and wisdom
• Cooperate with others in achieving worthwhile goals
