In keeping with the Declaration of Vatican II,
St. Mary's-Colgan Schools strive to attain these ends:
- To form a Christian Community based on the teachings of Jesus Christ, to afford opportunities for the growth of individual personalities.
- To create an atmosphere for intellectual pursuits.
- To give a sense of purpose which will be manifested in a life of usefulness to ones' family, community, and country.
The mission of St. Mary's-Colgan Schools is threefold:
- To build a faith community where students carry out Jesus' command to love one another.
Such a community seeks to enhance self-esteem and provide the opportunity to become caring and concerned members of society.
- To teach the Gospel Values in every dimension of school life. These values will illuminate and enrich each person's knowledge of God, life and culture.
- To serve students that they may manifest leadership and grow in their service to God, Church, community, and family.
