The Sisters of St. Joseph
Our Philosophy of Education
Inspired by Christ's words, "I came that they might have life and have it to the
full," we dedicate our apostolate to the education of others and of ourselves. We
affirm our belief that the need for a unique and Christ-centered education on all levels
is greater today than ever before.
Fully aware of the accelerating changes in society, we work diligently to set our
students on an unending pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty. We envision our students
growing into men and women able to understand and cope with life, willing to serve others,
impelled to worship God.
In daily liturgy and scriptural prayer we try to discover the impact of Christ's way in
every facet of our apostolate. Through faith, hope and love, we have the power to create a
joyous environment where the educator and the educated can expand their minds and hearts.
While guiding students to acquire skills, learn concepts, see relationships, and make
judgments, we honor responsible freedom. True education leads a person to discern and love
truth, to follow right reason, to reverence God and all His creation. |
