About Us

Statement of Philosophy

St. Madeleine Sophie School was founded on the premise that each person has a unique and dynamic relationship with our Creator.  Thus, our goal is to stimulate within the child a growing awareness of this relationship both as an individual and as a member of the Church community.  The result of this awareness is a child encouraged to become a creative and responsible member of society.

We acknowledge that each child has his/her own time and place of learning and a method and motivation for the things he/she will learn.  Furthermore, the sense of wonder and love of life is inherent in every child and must be nurtured.

Our commitment, then, is to facilitate an on-going self-education within the child and to provide a creative environment with opportunities for individual self-direction and decision-making.

As a Catholic school, we strive to become a community of believers where parents, staff and students seek to grow in the knowledge and love of God and one another.  In our pursuit of academic success, instruction emboldened by Catholic values functions as the underlying reality in which the students' experiences of learning and living reach their deepest meaning.

Flowing from this understanding, St. Madeleine Sophie School operates with the goal of providing the Christian Educational Community necessary for such growth to take place.
