St. John of God School and Parish work together as a unified community to support the spiritual, academic, and social development of all students. The school serves as an extension of the parish's mission by providing a Catholic education that integrates faith and learning. This close partnership between the school and parish enhances the overall educational experience, ensuring that students grow not only academically but also in their faith and commitment to service.
Our school collaborates with the parish in several key areas:
- Spiritual Formation: Students participate in parish liturgies, sacraments, and other religious activities that nurture their spiritual growth. The school regularly joins with the parish community for Mass, prayer services, and special celebrations, fostering a sense of belonging and unity.
- Ministry Support: The school actively engages in parish ministries and outreach programs, encouraging students and families to become involved in the broader parish community. This involvement helps cultivate a spirit of service and strengthens the connection between school families and parish life.
- Shared Resources and Facilities: The school and parish share resources such as meeting spaces, technology, and event facilities. This collaboration allows both entities to better serve the needs of the community while maximizing the use of parish and school assets.
- Communication and Collaboration: The school and parish maintain open lines of communication to ensure alignment in goals and initiatives. The pastoral staff, school leadership, and parent community work together to coordinate events, programs, and support systems that benefit both the school and parish.
By fostering a close relationship between the school and parish, we strive to build a strong, faith-centered community where students, families, and parishioners can thrive together.
