To
educate and prepare the whole child
within a nurturing environment based on Catholic values and beliefs in
order that the child may become a responsible and active member of the
Church and society.
Nativity
is a faith community in the Catholic tradition. We strive to build
community in our school, families, parish and neighborhood. We exist as
an extension of the family and offer our students a quality education
within a positive atmosphere of cooperation, concern, and caring.
Nativity School stresses the gospel message as a way of life and a
basis for responsible decision making. We value the family and
recognize that parents are the primary educators of their children. We
value the dignity of each individual, as a child of God.
