Drawing on the rich tradition of Catholic education handed down from the centuries, we stand on the shoulders of saints and scholars who point us to truth, goodness, beauty, wisdom, and virtue. Bishop Thomas John Paprocki and Dr. Mark Newcomb with the Department of Catholic Education of the Diocese of Springfield in Illinois have put forth this tagline: "Integrate, Elevate, Orient." We enthusiastically take these three goals as our own.
Integrate: To integrate all subjects, as all truth comes from God and leads us back to God. Elevate: To elevate topics and teaching to focus on the Good, the True, and the Beautiful. Orient: To orient all things to Christ, as the Way, the Truth, and the Life. (John 14:6)
