Philosophy  

St. Anselm School is an educational community that emphasizes the spiritual, intellectual, and personal development of students. We complement the home in developing the whole child, instilling in each student a love for God and His Church. We foster an enthusiasm for lifelong learning and an aspiration to academic excellence. St. Anselm School encourages appreciation for the intrinsic value of life, a respect for the dignity of others, and a commitment to social justice. We promote in each of our students a positive self-image while inspiring them to work collaboratively and be responsible citizens.
