The Catholic School Mission:
"United with the family, the parish, and each other, Catholic schools in the Diocese of Wichita FORM DISCIPLES OF JESUS CHRIST who seek the Truth, grow to love It, and learn to live It."
"United with the family, the parish, and each other…" The Catholic school can be successful only if it works with the parents (the Child’s primary educator), in the context of the parish (the basic unit of the Church family) united as one system under the Bishop.
"form…"
Catholic Schools must go beyond instruction to shape the total person and foster a mature adult faith capable of living our one’s baptismal promises.
"Disciples of Jesus Christ…"
The definitive aim of Catholic education is to form Disciples of Christ. Christ is the foundation of the entire Catholic educational process. Jesus is the Master Teacher, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
"Seek the Truth, grow to love It, and learn to live it…"
The Catholic school reaches beyond religion class to emphasize the application of Gospel values to all subject areas at every stage of life. Lifelong faith, not mere memorization, is the ultimate goal of the Catholic educational process. To seek Truth demands teacher and learner alike to think critically, creatively, and deeply. To learn to live Truth requires a commitment to apply moral principles to the changing and challenging issues of everyday life.
