Parent Student Online Handbook:
Mission / Philosophy
Our Mission
The mission of St. Isaac Jogues Parish School is To provide, in partnership with parents, the
environment, resources, structure and opportunities
to educate children in the Catholic tradition by
instilling in them the tenets of their faith, the need
for charity and service, the importance of liturgy,
prayer and sacraments, and the knowledge of their
culture, history and technology in an environment
of academic excellence in order to develop them
as responsible, educated citizens and active
members of the Catholic church.
Our Philosophy
St. Isaac Jogues School, an integral part of the
St. Isaac parish, acknowledges the primary role of
parents in their children’s education, encourages
their involvement, recognizes the uniqueness and
dignity of each student, and strives toward the four
fundamental components of excellence in Catholic
education of message, community, service and
worship. We offer each student the opportunity to
learn, respect and practice their faith through
doctrine, the sacraments, and accepting the responsibility of helping others. The school provides
programs to develop each student spiritually,
intellectually, physically and socially toward making
them faithful, knowledgeable and responsible citizens
and active members of the Catholic church.
