Mission Statement

St. Stephen the Martyr School is committed to promoting academic excellence, leading students in developing their God-given talents, and challenging these students to live the teachings of Jesus Christ as revealed through the Roman Catholic Church.

The philosophy of Catholic education takes into consideration the total personality of the student in the imparting of knowledge. There is unity of purpose springing from the students oneness. The school is responsible for contributing to the total development of each student in terms of his origin, nature, and destiny. St Stephen the Martyr School exists as a unit of the Mystical Body of Christ and as an institution of society. As such, its function is two-fold. First, it strives always to help the student grow in Christian love of God and all creatures, and secondly, it helps students in their search to find their full human potential. In order to obtain these goals we will:

 Encourage a love and devotion to God by means of frequent use of the Sacraments and other liturgical services.

 Promote the Christian view of all persons as children of God and thus worthy of our love, respect and help.

 Assert the necessity of proper use and care of all God's creatures.

 Promote honesty to oneself and peers.

 Maximize individual development.

 Achieve proficiency in basic skills.

 Develop intellectual capacities to think, solve problems, and synthesize information.

 Promote an understanding of the role and importance of a moral citizen.
