Philosophy
Our Lady Queen of Heaven Catholic School, partnering with parents and community, challenges each student to develop his/her greatest potential intellectually, culturally, and spiritually in an environment of academic excellence. Students are encouraged to use their God given talents, building a life-long commitment to Christ-like leadership.

Believing this to be the major goal, the following objectives are established and presented:

1. We believe that the integration of each child’s spiritual, intellectual, physical, and emotional development through meaningful educational experiences is our primary objective.
2. We believe that all students, members of the faculty and staff, and the parents and parish community sharing in the advancement of our school’s mission, are necessary for quality Catholic education.
3. We believe that students must be actively engaged in a variety of instructional strategies in an effort to support their individual learning styles, which therefore provide opportunities to meet with success and a sense of achievement.
4. We believe that through an innovative curriculum and a progressive technological program, students are challenged to reach their greatest potential in order to fulfill their role as responsible individuals in today’s changing society.
5. We believe that continuing education and ongoing Christian formation of each member of the faculty and staff is imperative for guiding students in their quest for knowledge and spiritual development.
