Mission
Statement
We, at St.
Edward on-the-Lake School,
work together
with our families and community
to create a Christ-centered
environment
which promotes
faith formation
academic excellence,
and personal development
Our
students
will have
the opportunity to become confident, independent thinkers,
and life-long learners
who are
responsible to God, to themselves,
and to society
Philosophy
We, the Port Huron Vicariate Catholic Schools, believe that
our schools exist to continue the educational ministry of
the church by proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ to
our students and by helping them integrate faith, life and
culture.
We believe that
each child is a gift from God endowed with unique and
special talents. Therefore, we believe that we should
provide a holistic education which helps each child develop
intellectually, aesthetically, socially, physically,
emotionally, and above all spiritually; thus, enabling them
to reach their full potential in all the gifts God has given
them.
We believe we
provide a Christ-centered environment that builds caring and
responsible individuals for membership in church and our
global society.
We believe that
our Christ-modeled education should develop respect for
self, for others, for all God’s creation, and teach our
children to act with peace and justice towards others.
We believe that
we must strive to work closely with parents, the primary
educators, in their vocation of nurturing the faith and
growth of their child(ren); that it will be through this
cooperative effort that we will attain the missions of our
schools.
