Philosophy

St. Genevieve School offers to its students an excellent academic program in an atmosphere dedicated to Catholic principles.  We clearly recognize and maintain that parents are the primary educators of their children.  We believe that each child is a unique, creative, and responsive person who grows and learns through interaction with others in an atmosphere of faith, which fosters Christian living.​

Our school works with students, in partnership with parents, to create an environment at school and at home in which each child feels valued.  Students will exercise their responsibility to use their gifts and talents in order to participate at school as fully caring, productive members of the school and world community.

St. Genevieve Elementary academic program builds a strong foundation of basic skills in core subjects, such as mathematics, language arts, science and social studies – while recognizing individual differences and learning styles. Religion classes and real-world experiences, such as community service projects and liturgical worship, develop in our students a true sense of a faith community.  Students at our school are encouraged to discover the joys of creative expression – through art, music and physical education.

Catholic values, morals, and character formation are integrated in every aspect of our curriculum, which extends through every aspect of our daily life.


Mission

St. Genevieve Elementary School exists to provide a quality "value-oriented" Catholic education to its students. Our goals are as follows: to work in partnership with parents, to provide a comprehensive religion program, to nurture an integrated curriculum, and to encourage a faith community. By these means, we hope to ensure an excellent Catholic academic education that will prepare students "To Know God, to Live with Honor, to Change the World."​
