Mission & Philosophy

Our Mission

At Our Lady of Grace Catholic School, we nurture the whole child: mind, body and soul through academic excellence, faith formation and a community where Jesus Christ is known and loved.

Our Philosophy

As a Christ-centered, Catholic community of parents, students, and faculty, we gather in faith to proclaim and teach the beliefs of our Church. Together we celebrate God’s love through worship, reflection, and response to God’s word through service. As a learning community, we share our talents to help each other succeed both within our community and universal community. We strive for academic excellence. By working to maximize the gifts of all, we recognize and respond to the call to work for the common good. As an inclusive community, we welcome and discern the gifts and needs of each parent, student, and faculty member. With Jesus as our role model, we promote growth, both spiritual and academic, with attention to the individual.

OLG believes in the tremendous value of students attending the same school for their elementary and middle school years. As a result, we invested in our middle school by adding new classrooms at the start of the 2022-23 school year so that our middle school students can be in an environment that is most conducive to both their academic and personal development. Experiencing middle school can be a very difficult journey, but thankfully our students who choose to stay for middle school are blessed with an environment in which they can be academically challenged in a familiar and nourishing setting. Simply put, Our Lady of Grace Catholic School is a wonderful example of why the preschool/kindergarten – 8th grade model is the ideal route for middle school students as they prepare for high school.
