ABOUT US
Our Philosophy
Mother of Christ believes that each child is a gift from God. Together with the parents, MOC will aid the children in the realization of the personal love God has for them. We help the children grasp this loving and personal relationship with the prayerful use of the Sacred Scriptures. We strive to instill the basic value of self-respect, respect for others and the appreciation of the beauty of the world by creative expression of their God-given talents.
Our Goals
1. Spiritual: To be a witness for Christ in family life and the parish community. To make children aware of their God-given capabilities. To provide children with the opportunity for personal and communal prayer, participation of the Sacraments and the opportunity to participate in class, school masses and prayer services.
2. Academic: To provide a strong academic curriculum. To give children the opportunity to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to live in a changing world, changing society and a new century.
3. Social: To create a community of Christians. To provide children the opportunity to accept and respect others as self, to develop the sense of team spirit, good sportsmanship, and positive peer pressure. These sentiments stimulate the love of God, self and others.
4. Emotional: To create an environment where children are accepted as unique individuals. To provide them the opportunity to develop self-esteem and respect for themselves and others.
