It is an honor and a privilege to be the principal of this wonderful school, and I firmly believe in all that Saint Laurentius School represents. I am grateful for the opportunity here to share with you the qualities and programs we offer that make SLS so special.
First, we are a family here. Your child becomes one of ours too. Due to our small class sizes, we are able to give students individualized attention tailored to meet their individual needs. We meet students where they are at, and watch them continue to grow throughout their time at SLS. We are able to accomplish this through the dedication of our wonderful teaching staff. Our teachers are life-long learners and are constantly seeking ways to develop in their own craft in order to better serve our students.
At SLS, we see our goals as two-fold: helping our students get to college and heaven. We seek to make both academics and faith come alive for our students. Our STREAM curriculum (Science, Technology, Religion, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) engages students in critical thinking by integrating learning across subject areas. Our teachers plan daily lessons with the use of technology and innovation in mind. Our classrooms are equipped with Smartboards and we enhance student learning through the use of one-to-one tools including Chromebooks and iPads. In addition, our Catholic faith guides everything we do, from attending Mass as a school community, to treating one other with compassion, to the ways that we give back to our local community in service.
We are a school family devoted to a mission of nurturing our children academically, spiritually and socially. I look forward to partnering with you in this mission. God bless you, and know that our door is always open.
