The mission of Little Flower Catholic School is to teach the message of Jesus
within a Catholic Christian community. The school faculty, in cooperation
with parents, provides opportunities for children to grow spiritually, morally,
socially, physically, and intellectually. We help students realize and use their
gifts and talents in order to be productive members of society in the 21st
century, and to make the world a better place in which to live.
Little Flower Catholic School is committed to teaching the message of Jesus in a Catholic Christian community.
Faculty and staff collaborate with parents, who are the primary educators, in order to enhance and build upon the learning begun at home. We seek to foster spiritual, moral, intellectual, emotional, and physical growth, resulting in the total development of the children.
The teachers at Little Flower are dedicated, caring and competent. They demonstrate respect for the students and for each other and work to build a strong faith community. The teachers create a positive and nurturing learning atmosphere in which students feel safe and are challenged to achieve their potential. Teachers present a structured, academic, and student-centered program. They recognize and respond to the individual needs and talents of the students.
Students demonstrate a respect for God, others, and themselves by using their gifts and talents to the best of their ability. Opportunities are provided so that students may share their gifts as a means of demonstrating God’s presence. By providing service to others, our students are challenged to move beyond themselves and into concern for the poor, the sick, and the elderly. Our students experience worship through liturgy, prayer, and sacraments and develop their relationships with God.
Teachers and students recognize and value a diversity of cultural heritages, present in our community and throughout the world. Instruction integrates a respect for all people.
Little Flower Catholic School recognizes and values the larger faith community to which it belongs. We are blessed to experience a sense of ownership by all members of the Little Flower Community.
Little Flower Catholic School strives to produce productive members of the 21st century. We value our rich past, and we look to a future filled with challenges, enthusiasm, values, and joy.
