OVERVIEW - Our Lady of Lourdes School (K-8)


OUR MISSION
Our Lady of Lourdes is a Catholic elementary school whose mission is to provide spiritual formation and academic instruction to children in kindergarten through eighth grade. We are a community of students, teachers, and parents committed to excellence and working together to foster a sense of social responsibility and a belief in the teachings of Jesus Christ. We recognize that each student is a unique individual and we strive to help all students reach their potential in a safe, Christian environment.

HIGH SCHOOL SELECTION PROCESS
We are blessed to be surrounded by many wonderful choices for Catholic High School education, however, the selection of a high school can be a very challenging/overwhelming process for some families. Please know that we are here to provide whatever assistance a family may find helpful. Miss Carthen and Miss Gearon are both open to meeting with families to discuss options and offer their input. This can be done on October 26 during Parent/Student/Teacher Conferences or parents can contact the school to schedule another appointment.  
 
There are also two programs that are planned by the Archdiocese to offer assistance to families:  
  • High School Nights provide students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade and their parents an opportunity to hear from representatives of the Catholic high schools about their programs and policies. Click here for a schedule of events.
  • Catholic High School's will hold Open House on Sunday, November 5, 2017. Click here for a schedule.
Additionally, we have put together a short PowerPoint presentation with helpful information.

Above all, keep the entire process in prayer. God has wonderful things planned for your child, trust that He will lead to the right school.
