Mission & Values

Inspired by the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and united in the Eucharist
the Holy Family Catholic School community commits to fostering
deepening faith, academic excellence, responsibility for self, and concern for others.

Core Values – The Fruits of the Spirit
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
(Galatians 5:22-23)
As St. Paul wrote, there are many rules we need to follow to live a rich, fulfilling life. The goal, however, is not to focus on not doing things that are against the rules, but rather seeking out opportunities to live out the fruits of the Spirit. There is never a wrong time to exemplify these traits.

Love: “I honor the dignity of other people and myself.”
Joy: “I see each day, opportunity, and challenge as a gift from God.”
Peace: “I seek to find resolutions to my problems and to assist others in doing the same.”
Forbearance: “I am patient and understanding when working with others.”
Kindness: “I treat others the way Jesus would.”
Goodness: “I am selfless in my actions, putting God and others before myself.”
Faithfulness: “I seek to have a real and personal relationship with Christ.”
Gentleness: “I conduct myself in a meek and mild manner, as Jesus did.”
Self-Control: “I do my best to resist temptations and to live as I am called.”
