Welcome

OPEN HOUSE AND NEW STUDENT APPLICATION PROCESS BEGINS
JANUARY 31, 2010 - 3:30-5:00 P.M.

We are a Catholic community of faith dedicated to educating students in grades K-8 according to the curriculum prescribed by the Department of Catholic Schools of Los Angeles and provided by the State of California.

We believe in providing daily experiences for students to grow in a personal relationship with Jesus, as they learn and practice their Catholic faith and to create a Christian atmosphere wherein teachers and students relate to one another with respect.

Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury,pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen

There can be no vulnerability without risk; there can be no community without vulnerability; there can be no peace, and ultimately no life, without community. M.Scott Peck
