We are hopeful that the information contained on this site will answer any questions that you might have. We offer children a Montessori education that supports the whole child, fortifying each student with great love and respect by matching the curriculum to each child's needs and individual learning styles, while at the same time introducing the Catholic faith.

We employ the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (also known as CGS), a non-scholastic, Montessori-based approach to the faith formation of children. Parents often describe it as a peaceful, prayerful experience for children. The Catechesis is based on the conviction that God and the child are in a personal relationship, and that the child has a deep need to personally experience and enjoy the presence of God.
All students attend First Friday masses and other holy days as a class- school event. Our students also enjoy many other events such as raising and caring for animals, growing flowers and other nature items. Check out activities here.
