Our Moto
"Let your Light Shine".
Our Mission
We,
at Notre Dame Elementary School, strive to make our school a source of
success for all our students. We believe the
education of children requires a cooperative team effort with strong
parental involvement and support.
All staff
model strong Christian values, characteristics, and qualities. With
dedicated staff, we strive to provide the very best for students’
social, emotional, physical, spiritual, and academic growth. We do that
by accepting the students as they are and build on improving their
self-esteem, capitalizing on their knowledge, skills, and competencies
to make them valued members of our school Christian community. We are dedicated to preparing students to meet the demands of being 21st century learners.
Why Catholic Schools?
Our
superintendent's message gives an excellent overview of our philosophy as a Catholic district and the advantages of having your child educated in a Christian environment.
