Our Faculty & Staff

Rutherford Hayes, our country's nineteenth president once said: “Personally I do not resort to force—not even the force of law— to advance moral reforms. I prefer education, argument, persuasion, and above all, the influence of example.” Our teachers and staff agree; to lead by example sets the right tone for learning and much more. 

We are rooted in the teachings of the Church and are committed to a quality Catholic education. We address the spiritual, academic, social, and physical needs of our students in a caring atmosphere. Certified teachers and qualified staff teach by example, as much as they do by the presentation of material, to best prepare students for the larger world about them.

We have an excellent contingent of certified teachers and staff devoted to what they do every day. We seek excellence in your students only after we require excellence in our teachers.
