LEARN: St. Theresa’s Catholic School is blessed with a talented and skilled community. Parents, parishioners, businesses, and friends of the school aid in countless ways to help students, teachers, and staff by offering their expertise on school board, technology/ robotics, classroom activities, lunchroom, library, academic and athletic extracurriculars and art program support.SERVE: School families are asked to volunteer 25 hours of service to the school or parish. These volunteer hours help the school maximize the time of its faculty and minimize extra costs. Additionally, strong volunteer support positions the school for grant opportunities. Grandparents, extended family, and parishioners are welcomed and encouraged to get involved at the school.
BELIEVE: Generosity provides the financial resources to make our school a success, engages volunteers, and promotes the Gospel message of being good stewards by operating on a balanced budget.
