MISSION STATEMENT

​

PHILOSOPHY

​St. Matthias Dual Language School upholds the four cornerstones of Notre Dame Educational Philosophy: the dignity of the teacher, the worth of the individual, the centrality of religion, and the thoroughness of instruction. As Christian educators we are called to share our faith and instill Catholic values in our students.  As facilitators of learning our program nurtures the intellectual, moral, emotional, physical, and spiritual growth of each child.  We believe that the educational process is a Christian journey that nurtures a lifelong love for learning and preparation for full participation in the life of the Church and the global society.  Our educational philosophy directs the school program to promote the development of the whole child.  Our faith community is based on Catholic faith tradition and the teachings of the Church and is built upon a partnership with the parents who are the primary educators of the children.
