Saints Philip and James School is committed to the classical Catholic concept of education, whereby a child is taught to know, love, and serve God in this life with a view to sharing Eternal Life with God in Heaven.
In striving to develop a community characterized by intellectual and moral responsibility, the faculty, staff and students who labor and learn within Saints Philip and James School combine their individual talents, personalities, experiences and heritages.
The school endeavors to cooperate with parents and the community in developing young persons who not only possess the knowledge and skills needed for competence within our society, but who also live according to the values and convictions of the Catholic Church.
The administration, faculty and staff members must be persons willing to create an environment, through principle and example, wherein personal growth will flourish and actions will be guided by virtue. They must be persons totally committed to the pursuit of professional excellence and sensitive to the varied needs of the individual student.
We believe that the individual student has the right to be challenged through a structured, value-oriented education in preparation for life in an ever-changing society.
