As Catholics, we firmly believe that each of us is a unique individual made in the image and likeness of God. It is our firm belief that St. Veronica School through its philosophy of education can contribute much to help each student not only to attain his/her final goal of union with God, but also aid him/her in becoming the person that God intended him/her to be on earth. As a result, St. Veronica School believes in the Christian approach to education which takes into consideration all facets of the individual-spiritual, physical, mental, moral, and social. By this approach, St. Veronica School attempts to develop each student's full potential and, in turn, help the student form a positive self image. Christian education also attempts to form the human person in relationship with the other members of society. Through the teaching of Gospel values, St. Veronica School prepares the students to function as responsible stewards of God.
The curriculum which embraces a variety of religious and secular subjects is intended to develop responsible, decision-making individuals. St. Veronica School seeks to offer a broad based educational curriculum, striving to meet a standard of excellence in every subject, discipline, and opportunity presented to its students. The preparation of each student for the maximum benefit from his/her future educational experiences is a constant goal of faculty and staff.
The purpose of the Catholic school is to share in the three-fold mission of the church: to teach, to govern, and to sanctify. St. Veronica School strives to be an effective vehicle to accomplish this mission. Catholic doctrine is to be taught and witnessed through the lives of the faculty and staff, in order to create an atmosphere that fosters Christian values and is expressed through our community worship.
