I believe our goal as educators is to teach our students to have inquiring minds and be excited about learning. They need the basic skills of reading, writing, and math, but they also need to develop critical thinking skills. In today's technological world, they need not only to find answers for themselves but also how to ask questions. At Our Lady of Perpetual Help School, our Christ centered education focuses on teaching values which prepare each student to make moral choices and to have an active concern for others.
