Mission & Philosophy

St. Rita School celebrates the Catholic tradition, promotes Gospel values, and calls students to love and serve God and others. The educational program nurtures students to reach their fullest potential and prepares them for the future in a positive, creative, and enriched learning environment.

St. Rita School serves students, their families, the community, and the Church by providing opportunities for spiritual, intellectual, emotional, social, and physical growth. Each child, created in God’s image, is afforded dignity and taught respect for Catholic values. All members of the school community are encouraged to model these values and integrate them into their daily lives.

The academic program incorporates high standards and challenges students to become life-long learners who are capable of critical and independent thought. Students are provided a variety of extra-curricular and co-curricular activities, which expands their horizons, teaches them responsibility, and prepares them for a successful future. St. Rita School believes that partnership with parents and other community members is paramount to achieving these educational goals.
