St. Bede School is Catholic, Academically Excellent and Responsive to the community in which we serve.
St. Bede the Venerable is a Catholic School that serves the parish community and is both an expression of and a witness to the faith of its people.
The school’s main responsibility is in the area of Catholic education-preschool through eighth grade. It is the individual student who is the school’s primary concern as he develops morally, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and physically as a unique free person.
Believing that a child’s development best occurs within the framework of a positive and structured environment, St. Bede School offers innovative educational programs of high quality. The aim of these programs is to challenge each student while teaching basic skills, within a Christian atmosphere where mutual respect, order, and values are a high priority. The core of our curriculum is religious education, both content and practice. Christian attitudes and values are the foundation of this developmental process.
We believe that students must be taught how to learn with increased responsibility for learning given to each student. Our programs are flexible. Special grouping and instruction are provided to challenge exceptional students and to support students with special learning problems to the best of our ability. Extracurricular activities are provided and encouraged so students are able to discover their particular talents and enjoy their educational experience.
We believe that parental involvement and support is the key to a successful program. Parents are encouraged to become actively involved in a variety of ways and to express their opinions of existing and future programs. The administration and faculty involves and informs parents through weekly newsletters, meetings, workshops, questionnaires, volunteer programs and conferences.
