Mission Statement & Philosophy

Our Mission:
The mission of Saint Dominic School is to enliven the Catholic faith, foster respect and responsibility, and facilitate academic excellence in every student in order to send forth future leaders to our Church and society.

 

Philosophy:
Saint Dominic School, a Catholic Elementary School, was called into existence by the Saint Dominic Parish Community, Trenton Diocese, in 1965.  As a Catholic educational institution, our focus is to minister to the spiritual, intellectual, psychological, social, cultural, and physical needs of children in Grades Preschool through Eight.

The students learn respect for God's creation, regard for the dignity of the human person, and responsibility, as members of the people of God through instruction in Catholic faith and values, providing them with a strong sense of moral direction.  The development of each child's faith life is nurtured through times of prayer, liturgical celebrations, service, and the study of the Gospels.

Saint Dominic School conducts academic programs to promote personal growth and develop the full potential of each child.  Opportunities for athletic, cultural, and social activities are provided.  This quality education prepares the students to be productive and positive members of society.

Saint Dominic's purpose calls us to lead young men and women to witness to Christ through prayer, example,and service.  As Catholic educated youth, they serve God and their country with a spirit of respect and social justice.
