Our Lady of Lourdes School
Pre-School through Eighth Grade
|
At Our Lady of Lourdes School, a sense of oneness permeates our environment. Oneness happens through our single-minded devotion to academic excellence, an engaged community of educators, parents and students, together as one, joined in our Catholic faith, preparing our children to reach their full potential.
Through our dedication to our core principles of academics, community, and faith we see our children go on to thrive in the high school of their choice. We watch them flourish in the community around them. And we send them forth together in the knowledge and love of God. 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.
