Philosophy The purpose of the school is an extension of the purpose of the church, ‘To Teach As Jesus Did’. We, as members of
a Catholic elementary-educational community, promote life-giving relationships among teachers, students and parents, who
encompass our school community. By our faith, support, understanding, knowledge and good example, we aspire to infuse in our
students an appreciation and love for their Catholic education. Catholic education is at the heart of the Immaculate Heart
of Mary School not simply as a concept to be taught, but as a reality to be lived. Faculty, parents, and students must be moved
through education to build a community in all areas of life. This goal can and will be accomplished, not only through working
and learning, but by example and experience in the light of faith. Working together as a team, praying, trusting, and sharing,
the community of Immaculate Heart of Mary School will then be truly a reality to be lived. As educators we realize the
importance of educating the student, not only in the development of religion and morals, but also in the development of
intellectual ability. Through academic excellence, the students are taught that their individual goals and objectives can
be achieved. We strive to meet these individual needs by the presentations of, and the continuous reinforcement of, the basic
skills and sciences. The individual needs of each student are of grave concern to the teachers, and it is our daily task to
try and reach each student with a positive attitude for accepting and learning the academic subjects. Disclaimer Statement
