Mission of St. Aloysius Gonzaga Academy
St. Aloysius Gonzaga Academy educates and inspires its students to achieve excellence and is devoted to the promotion of Catholic ideals and traditions in service to the Church and greater community.

 

Vision of St. Aloysius Gonzaga Academy
St. Aloysius Gonzaga Academy is made up of many individuals but must live and breathe as one to accomplish its mission. As a team we must work together to be stronger than the sum of its parts, so too must the St. Aloysius Church community work together toward the development of our children by supporting the heroic efforts of our school’s staff and faculty.

With Christ to inspire and guide, the staff, faculty and community must do the following to advance our school:

 

· Inspire students to learn and grow in academics and in the Catholic faith

· Employ and retain qualified teachers who are committed to the academic and developmental excellence of our students and who model our Catholic mission

· Provide safe, secure, and modern facilities for all curricular and extra- curricular activities

· Obtain and utilize state of art technologies in the classroom and integrate them into the Archdiocesan curriculum

· Actively promote both the school and the Church within the community to ensure the school’s continued growth

· Operate an interconnected system of planning and  advisory committees to address current and future needs of the school

Philosophy
The purpose of St. Aloysius Gonzaga Academy is to cooperate with the parents in the responsibility of the education of their children. This education consists in stressing the spiritual and moral as well as the intellectual, physical, and emotional development of the student so that s/he will mature into responsible, loyal citizen and a peaceful, understanding friend and neighbor.

 

Our objectives are to:

1. Provide a curriculum to meet the needs of each student-basic skills which will give the student the ability to make inferences from specific facts, to apply principles, to use logical processes in detecting assumptions and facts, and to generalize;

2. Develop in each student the basic knowledge of understanding differences that come from  variations in economic circumstances or in social/cultural backgrounds;

3. Create in each student an awareness that s/he lives in a particular society that calls for the full responsibility of developing his/her physical and mental potentials and moral principles to the utmost.

Underlying all of the above objectives is our primary and most important purpose –“to strive to relate all human learning and culture to the news of salvation,” not by teaching religious truths and values merely as another subject, but as the underlying reality which gives deep meaning to learning and life and aids the student in forming a Christian attitude toward racial, religious, and political issues.
