Our Mission
We, the school family of St. Ephrem Catholic Academy, strive to be a welcoming and responsive Roman Catholic community by passing our faith and traditions as we teach the students from Pre-K3 to 8th grade by word and example.
Our Philosophy
To address our Mission, the faculty and staff at St. Ephrem Catholic Academy believe that:
-
Catholic education has as its primary aim the promotion of a vibrant Christian community and to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.
-
The purpose of our educational process should be child-oriented and balance physically, emotionally, aesthetically and socially with a developmentally appropriate, academically challenging, gospel-infused curriculum.
-
The relationship and rapport among the administration, faculty, staff, parents and students are essential as together they respectfully set a pattern of constructive experiences, thereby generating a uniquely cohesive curriculum.
-
As educators in a Catholic school, we are committed to the teaching of Christian values which provide a profound service to society.
-
Strategic planning is essential for preserving the vision of Catholic education in our school community.
