Principal’s Welcome

Principal - Mrs. Styren

Welcome

On behalf of the Holy Family Catholic School community, I welcome you.

Holy Family has a rich faith, dedication, and academic excellence history. Our school was founded by parents who desired a quality educational program for their children. They sought a learning environment where parents, as the primary educators of their children, could actively participate alongside teachers to develop each child’s unique gifts and talents. Finally, they wanted an education that provided daily opportunities for students to develop and deepen both their own relationship with God and their family’s faith.

Their vision was realized in 1996 when Holy Family Catholic School opened its doors as a K-3 school with 56 students. Today, we enjoy a beautiful seven-acre campus with an impressive school campus, large playground, and field. Holy Family’s student body consists of Preschool-8th graders who participate in an active and dynamic educational program, including extracurricular activities; families are also offered childcare and after-school programs. Most important, however, is the fact that the values treasured by the founding parents still exist and are fostered today. Parents, teachers, staff, students, and a strong Catholic community work in partnership to achieve Holy Family’s mission “to promote —excellence in education, spiritually, academically, and physically – for the whole person, thereby nourishing the gifts uniquely given to each by God.” We are educating a new generation of community leaders ready to put their faith into action.

St. Augustine’s thoughts about loving relationships and what they mean to us as Catholic Educators provide inspiring food for thought as we prepare to meet the day’s challenges. “Catholic school students learn to experience God’s grace and presence through their relationships with family, friends, and teachers. The loving and supportive relationships they experience are reflections of the love and life-giving dynamic of the Trinity. As a community, we celebrate our successes and achievements. We share grief and downfalls. We unite in solidarity and even challenge each other to become better reflections of the divine. We are made for community.”

As you look through our website and enjoy highlights from our school, we hope that you get a sense of who we are as a community; committed to a high-quality, comprehensive academic program centered around recognizing each student’s gifts and talents, fostering a love of life-long learning, nurturing the desire to form an ever-deepening relationship with God, and putting our faith in action in service to one another. If you feel inspired to join the Holy Family community, please get in touch with us to learn how you can participate in helping us meet our mission by enrolling, volunteering, donating, or including us in your prayers.

May God guide and support every one of us. May He work through each of us to help us grow in wisdom, love, and grace.

 

Pax et Bonum,

Sue Styren, M.Ed.

 

Holy Family Prayer

Our most loving Father,

We come together as a faith-filled community and as Your beloved children to thank You for all the blessings You have given us through Holy Family Catholic School.

Through our humble prayers, may You, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit continue to bless our school family. With Your help, may our school community grow and flourish so that future generations may come to know, love, and serve You.

We ask our school patrons, the Holy Family, Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, to help us as we seek to do Your will and be disciples as we knock at the door. O Lord Jesus Christ, we remember Your words, “Ask, and it will be given to you, seek, and you will find, knock and the door will be open to you.” (Mt 7.7)

Amen
