About 
Our School

Holy Family Catholic School, led by Sr. Dorothy Sayers and Sr. Angela Bulla, opened on September 3, 1996, with 641 students. The school was built as part of the "Project Growth" campaign initiated by Fr. William Ennis.

 

The school received its Blue Ribbon School Award in November 2006. Over the years, additional facilities such as a gym, cafeteria, and STEM lab were added. Holy Family Catholic School celebrated its 25th anniversary on September 3, 2021, and looks forward to the future.

God bless,

Mrs. Schellenberg

At Holy Family Catholic School, we believe:

  • Every person is a unique reflection of God, gifted with individual talents to be cultivated and shared.  

  • The greatest calling as followers of Jesus is to love God wholeheartedly and love others as ourselves.  

  • Each child in our care is a unique creation of God, deserving love and respect.  

  • Empowered by their beliefs and faith, students can bring love, compassion, and peace to others.  

  • Students need a strong moral and academic foundation to contribute to society. 

  • A secure environment is crucial for student success.  

  • Community service is integral to a Catholic education, promoting prayer, charity, service, and social justice.  

  • We are guided as faithful disciples to honor and celebrate God's love through our actions and service.
