Our Philosophy
We believe…
that our school environment embodies the ideals inherent in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
that we should strive to live and teach the gospel truths of faith, hope, and love in an integrated curriculum.
that we prepare our students to assume responsibilities for their present day lives as well as for the future society.
that we recognize the uniqueness of each student by fostering a deep appreciation for learning and critical thinking skills provided through various instructional processes, which support educating the whole child.
that the process of instilling Christian values in concert with an awareness of oneself and others, is central to this endeavor.
that we nourish an environment of mutual respect and understanding with a supportive learning atmosphere, encouraging personal and social growth.
that the administrative and academic policies are implemented in accord with the guidelines provided by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia and the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
that our pastor, principal, and vice-principal share efforts to formulate, amend, and maintain direct policies conducive to a healthy, happy, and successful learning experience for our students.
that a variety of assessments is employed to evaluate student progress and achievement.
that continuous supervision of teachers’ methods, creativity, and adherence to policies is necessary so that academic and spiritual advancement may take place in the classrooms.
that teachers share partnership with administration, staff members, students, and families to teach the gospel message of love.
that it is necessary to reflect continuously on the entire educational process so that St. Cecilia School will enhance future growth to build the City of God.
