About

WE BELIEVE THAT:

Jesus Christ is our focus and foundation.
Each person is created in the image and likeness of God and therefore has innate worth.
The school community is called to implement and witness Christ’s teachings.
Parents, as primary educators, are integral to the educational process.
Integrity and personal responsibility are essential for students, parents and school staff.
The health, well-being, and safety of every student are necessary for a productive learning environment.
Students learn and benefit from a variety of teaching methods.
Learning is a life-long process for all members of the McDevitt community.
All students have the ability to become successful and productive members of society.
Extra-curricular activities complement classroom education in the development of well-rounded individuals.
Service to others empowers students to contribute to the community by sharing their gifts and talents.
