Our Mission
We are a non-profit regional school founded in 1990 as a merger of Holy Innocent's Elementary School, Saint James' Elementary School, and Saint Martin's Elementary School serving Catholic and non-Catholic families in the West End section of Pittsburgh.
Our mission is to provide a framework of learning that develops in students:
* Positive attitudes of learning
* An ability to acquire, integrate, refine and extend knowledge in the classroom and on their own.
* Productive habits of mind, and an attitude that stresses Christian Values in all areas of life.
We will work with our students to achieve high academic standards, an appreciation for others, the community, and the world environment. We strive for our students to possess good self-esteem, and a sense of personal effectiveness, which includes a belief in their ability to shape the future and assume a responsible role in the Church and society.
