St. Michael's School is a place where our Catholic faith is integrated into every moment of every day.
Faith formation is experienced not as something to be carried out only at home or on Sunday, but as something integrated into each student's school life.
Our staff model Christ-like behavior and bring a sense of the wonder of God's creation into all subjects, from art to mathematics.
At St. Michael's School we incorporate prayer, worship, and study into our daily activities.
SMS partners with the parish as a vibrant, life-giving ministry and a bringer of faith to the next generation.
St. Michael's School follows a structured curriculum provided by the diocese to promote academic excellence in all areas as well as a strong faith base.
Our overall goal is to form students strong in faith, in knowledge, and in leadership.
Our graduates excel academically as they move on to high school and beyond, but just as importantly they become leaders in their faith and in their community.
