ENTER TO LEARN. GO FORTH TO SERVE CHRIST.
OUR PHILOSOPHY St. Francis Borgia Catholic School seeks to instill strong Catholic Christian values among its students. As professional Christian teachers, we assume the responsibility of students’ growth and development within the school environment. We strive to meet the individual needs of all children by promoting a strong sense of self-worth, while nurturing self-discipline, responsibility, and respect. The foundation of Catholic education is: To Teach as Jesus Did. Our teachings incorporate this same foundation; fostering spiritual, academic, emotional, and physical growth.
CURRICULUM HIGHLIGHTS At St. Francis Borgia Catholic School, all teachers are trained in and practice Differentiated Instruction within their classroom. This method of teaching encourages the use of technology as an essential tool.
