Educational Philosophy

The faculty and administration at St. Leo School, in conjunction with the Parish administration and community, seek to nurture in each child the spiritual, moral, intellectual, social, emotional, and physical development necessary for him/her to function to the best of his/her ability as an individual and a member of society. As a Catholic school, we believe that our most important goal is the formation of Christ in all individuals.  We achieve this through sharing Christ’s message, involvement in the community, worship, and service to others.
