Our Mission
Catholic education is an expression of the mission entrusted by Jesus
to His church and is concerned with the spiritual, intellectual, social,
emotional, aesthetic, and physical growth of each child. The goal of
Annunciation Catholic School is to encourage and support each child to
reach his potential in a multifaceted society.
Parents are the primary educators of their child and it is our task
to assist them in this work. Annunciation Catholic School recognizes the
differences in students’ abilities and potential and strives to develop:
- Academic Excellence
- Basic Christian attitudes and values
- A strengthening of Character
- Integrity through self-discipline
- A desire for personal achievement and life-long learning
- A reverence for one’s-self, others and all creation
