PHILOSOPHY OF CATHOLIC EDUCATION
We, the faculty and staff of SKD School, declare our belief in, and need for a Christ-centered education by embracing the mission of the Church to proclaim the Gospel to all people. We affirm this faith-development already present in the family, and augment it by opening to the child all possible avenues which lead him/her to our Creator and loving Father. We aspire to nourish free, personal encounters with Christ by stirring in the child an ardent desire to understand his/her relationship to God, oneself, and others.
In order to achieve the student’s fullest potential as a human being, we are concerned with creating a stimulating, yet controlled atmosphere, in which each child is able to experience and acquire that knowledge which will be the firm foundation upon which he/she can build a happy and successful life. In addition, we are committed to helping the children gain a deep appreciation of their Catholic heritage and a concerned, active interest in their American citizenship.
Therefore, we aim to educate the whole child – spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.
