We at St. George School believe:

• Our students are a valued treasure and the future of our Catholic Church.
• Parents have the primary responsibility for their children’s education.
• The Catholic school is at the heart of the evangelizing mission of the Church.
• Catholic schools provide excellent academics imparted in the context of Catholic teaching and practice; there is no separation between time for learning and time for formation.
• The prime responsibility for creating the unique Catholic school climate rests with the faculty and staff, as individuals and as a community.
• Catholic school personnel need to have strong bonds to Christ and the Church and be witnesses to the faith in both their words and actions.
• All students have individual gifts and talents that teachers are to recognize and develop.
• Since learning is a life-long process, teachers must impart study skills, work habits, problem-solving strategies and communication skills to ensure success at each new level of learning.
• The school’s purpose will be achieved through a school environment that is pleasant and flexible, and where self-discipline is evidenced in all relationships.
• All members of the school community—students, parents, faculty and staff—are called to show love and respect for themselves and others.
