MISSION STATEMENT OF LANSDALE CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL

 

Lansdale Catholic is a learning community teaching values for life through a formative Catholic education.


Core Values:

 

We believe that:

 

1. The learning community recognizes that all life is sacred, and all human life is created in the image and likeness of God.

2. The Catholic faith permeates all aspects of our school, which leads the students to a personal relationship with God through their formation in the Catholic faith.

3. Education is a life-long process.  A learning community provides the opportunity for the development of skills necessary for success in the classroom and in future endeavors.

4. A learning community is comprised of active involvement and shared responsibility among students, parents, teachers, administrators, and members of the community.

5. Understanding and appreciating diversity in our community and the world are essential in order to develop self-discipline, cultural sensitivity, and a social conscience.

6. Education, through rigorous academics, is a student-centered process, which challenges individuals to acquire knowledge necessary for successful participation in a technological and global society.

7. An awareness of responsibilities is instilled in students by providing extracurricular activities, which complement their spiritual, social and intellectual growth.

8. A nurturing, safe and caring environment is necessary for a student’s optimal growth and well-being.
