We approach the development of character and teaching of virtues with the same intentionality we apply to teaching the academic disciplines. Our Character and Virtues education curriculum is comprehensive, spanning Grades 1-12, and guided by defined learning outcomes for Elementary, Junior High, and Senior High School. This curriculum coordinates with, but is distinct from, the religious education curriculum. We believe that developing strong character and understanding what it means to be virtuous is vital for every student, regardless of faith tradition. It also forms a foundation for any Roman Catholic student.
