Tuition Information
We are Catholic educators, instruments of our God, exemplifying Christian values and positive
attitudes, as expressed in our kindness, compassion, understanding,
and love of God's children, our students.
St. Bernard's exists to assist the family in the shared responsibility of the development of its students. We recognize that without parental support and involvement, we cannot fulfill our goal of educating children in a Christian manner. We believe that education is a shared responsibility of the home, the school, the Church and the community. With the mutual cooperation of all, we strive to provide a Christian educational atmosphere and program in which each student is allowed an opportunity to develop his/her own unique gifts of spiritual/moral, intellectual, social and physical capabilities.
We strive to make education a life forming experience by implementing the following goals and objectives:
Teach the students to worship God in Spirit and in Truth instill the values of respect, courtesy and kindness towards everyone.Provide an atmosphere in which students will acquire the quality education and growth in leadership traits traditionally associated with American private education.
Affirm individual dignity, responsible decision-making, and pursuit of academic excellence.
Prepare students to meet their responsibilities to God, family, neighbor and country.
We believe firmly in the principle that every student is unique with his/her own special talents and limitations. Therefore, as educators, we strive to provide all available opportunities to enable our students to develop their talents as fully as possible.
In carrying out our Philosophy, we strive:
...to lead the student to encounter Christ in a prayerful life of action...to create an awareness of community - the community of which he/she is an integral part
...to foster the attitude and behavior of good citizenship
...to develop the power of correct expression
...to cultivate an appreciation of good art, music and literature
...to develop, maintain, and increase basic reading and study skills
...to impress upon the student the positive aspect of his/her own uniqueness with its many talents and limitations
...to impress upon the student that we are presenting the tools with which he/she may grow in his/her search for self-satisfaction, the fulfillment of dreams, rich, personal relationships and the attainment of Christian attitudes.
To accomplish these goals the Faculty, functioning as a faith and social community, guides and instructs, prays and strives to be a good example.
