Philosophy
of Nativity Blessed Virgin Mary School
Nativity
BVM School is a Pre-K through eighth grade Catholic school
staffed by talented and enthusiastic lay teachers who are
dedicated to the education of the whole child…heart,
mind, and soul. We commit ourselves to the Catholic expression
of religious education that is based in scripture and Catholic
tradition.
Nativity
affords each student the opportunity to realize his/her potential
through a sequential development of basic skills needed for
a successful and meaningful life. Our small class size enables
each student to experience success in a rich learning environment.
Providing an atmosphere of mutual respect and concern for
one another strengthens the students’ social growth
and development.
In
collaboration with the parents, our common goal is to guide
the students towards the discovery of a meaningful, self-actualizing,
and responsible life, as well as an acceptance of others as
representatives of Christ on earth. As we work together we
grow in faith, friendship, trust, cooperation, and love.
Our Vision….
Nativity B.V.M. is a Catholic School:
- Where
students thrive in a life giving community centered in Christ
- Where
Gospel values and a quality education empower students to
move forward with a sense of pride, accomplishment and a
rich heritage, and
- Where
the doors to the future open with the hope that all become
a living expression of His Love.
CARES
is our before and after school child-care program with a goal
to provide students physical exercise, quiet time, and a homework/study
period. The CARES Program is available to children in PreK-4
through grade 6. The Program starts at 7:00 A.M (until the
start of school at 8:00) and again at 3:05 P.M. until 6.00
P.M.
