Saint Theresa School, a member of the Roman Catholic Archdiocesan
school system, is staffed by lay faculty and subsidized by parish
contributions and the financial support of the Church. We strive to
foster a Christian community in which each child is encouraged to
reach his or her full potential. We create an environment in which
the children can grow spiritually, intellectually, emotionally,
socially and physically. Our ultimate goal is to see that each child
leaves us with a solid moral and academic foundation.
A child’s parents are the primary educators of their child and,
therefore, we encourage the parents’ positive active support in their
child’s education. At Saint Theresa School, the children participate
in daily prayer, liturgical celebrations, and opportunities for
individual worship. We hope that parents will encourage these
practices, and participate in many of them along with their children.
Roman Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of New York base not only
their educational purposes, but all their activities, on the Christian
teaching of the essential equality of all students. Saint Theresa
School welcomes students of all backgrounds and does not discriminate
on the basis of race, religion, sex, or national origin. We seek
families who wish to participate academically and socially in all
aspects of their child’s formative years. The welfare of the children
is our main goal, and through the cooperation and teamwork of all
those involved, we will produce happy, loving, and well-adjusted
children.
