Immaculate Conception Catholic School provides a rigorous Catholic education steeped in tradition and the beauty of our faith. Our students live their faith through the learning experience by participating fully in the sacraments and liturgical seasons of the Church. Our mission is to "Teach as Jesus Taught" and to prepare them to live a life of servant leadership.
We work together in our vocation as educators to develop the whole child, helping them to love to learn, see the beauty and dignity in each person, and to grow in holy wisdom. By cultivating engaging learners, we help them understand their purpose: to live with God forever in Heaven by loving and serving Him in this world.
It is our privelege to be entrusted with the education of each child and to partner with every family in our mission. Likewise, it a great privelege to be the recipient of your support in our mission to strengthen the future of the Roman Catholic Church.
