St. Sylvester School is a Parish School in the South Hills Deanery in the Diocese of Pittsburgh.
The administrative structure greatly impacts the total education and our ability to create an environment that is conducive to academic and spiritual growth.
The principal looks to the pastor for guidance, support, and encouragement to provide effective leadership for the school.
The collaboration of the pastor and the principal facilitates decisions in the area of staffing, financing, fund raising and improving the physical plant.
Our mission is to teach our students about God, His Commandments, His Sacraments and His Love.
We strive to foster in each child a sense of self-worth and an appreciation of his or her own talents.
Our school is about students and helping them meet their highest potential as children of God.
Because we are convinced each Christian has an obligation to bring Christ to the world through service and the elimination of injustices, we develop within our students a concern for others.
