Mission
John F. Kennedy Catholic School is the preschool – 8th grade school of Our Lady of Victory Catholic Parish.
Our mission is teaching children to become disciples of Christ by living Gospel values, nurturing gifts and talents, and pursuing academic excellence.
Vision
Leading the way in Catholic school education.
Slogan
There is a difference in education.
Philosophy
Our firm belief is that the primary nurturing and responsibility of educating children is the family. Education begins at home with the parents or guardians.
We, as a School, accept the supplemental responsibility as a continuum of home.
Within the structure of our Catholic Christian teachings, we accept each child as a unique and individual gift of The Father. Recognizing this, we are a responsible entity to assist students in developing the riches of life spiritually, academically, physically, morally, emotionally, and socially.
With Jesus as the Primary Teacher of the global Christian faith community, we will continue to develop a firm and positive Catholic Christian attitude and environment that will tell the message of Jesus and the Gospels.
