About the School

Saint Theresa of the Child Jesus School has been providing its students with a Catholic-centered education since 1930.
Our primary goal is to develop the student's intellectual, spiritual, physical, and social growth.
We strive to instill in students a sense of respect, dignity, charity, and responsibility which enables them to become well-rounded individuals.
We welcome all children to be part of our school community.
By learning and working together, students are taught to respect the differences among people and to celebrate that which unites them.
We see ourselves as an extension of the family and thus offer a caring atmosphere for learning.
Our students are encouraged to look to each other, as well as to their teachers and parents, for support and understanding; for the knowledge of being loved and cared for is paramount to the happiness the students radiate.
