St. Michael's School exists in order to provide for the religious, educational, technological, emotional, social, and cultural needs of the children of St. Michael’s parish and community within an atmosphere of respect and Christian love. Since St. Michael’s is here to serve the needs of the community, for the most part, it has an open door admission policy; it takes children where they are and tries to lead them upward with a success oriented combination of large and small group instruction, departmentalized and self-contained classrooms, as well as remedial and enrichment programs. We believe that each child is unique.  Children do learn, grow and assume responsibility at different rates.  We do believe that before children can learn and develop to their full potential, their psychological, social, emotional and physical needs must be met.
