Who We Are 

2025-2026 School Year Theme

Powered by prayer in pursuit of a roadmap to reality

The MISSION of St. Dominic School is to provide an educational program that promotes academic excellence while emphasizing the teaching of the Catholic faith in a safe, nurturing environment, so that our students may become whole persons for the glory of God.

Our vision is that St. Dominic School remains dedicated to helping students build a broad Catholic foundation of strong character, deep faith, respect, and service to the community, while fostering a personal relationship with God, by providing a dynamic, rich, and caring learning environment.

CORE VALUES

  • I am the good person God created me to be.
  • I will be a friend to everyone.
  • I will respect all people, including myself.
  • I am called to help and serve others.
  • I will be responsible in all that I do.

STEWARDSHIP

St. Dominic Parish is a stewardship parish, and all parishioners must demonstrate a desire to share their stewardship of time, talent and treasure in thanksgiving for God’s blessings. One of those blessings is St. Dominic School, and the parish, through stewardship of treasure (tithing), provides a subsidy of over $400,000 to St. Dominic School each year. Parish families whose children attend St. Dominic School are required to volunteer at the school and parish level, and their tithing contributions are recommended in consideration of the church’s subsidy to the school and the fact that the cost to educate each child at St. Dominic School is over $5,000 per year.

Stewardship of time and talent is also practiced at the school level. Parish- and non-parish parent/guardians are required to contribute their time and talent to school-related programs and activities. Opportunities include but are not limited to helping with St. Dominic Athletics, the PTO, and the St. Dominic School Advisory Committee. Students practice stewardship throughout the year, volunteering and serving in support of a wide variety of school, local, community and global initiatives. Students in the 8th grade also have a class in stewardship that is part of the Religion curriculum and taught each week.  In addition, beginning in the 6th grade, students are required to complete at least 10 hours of service.
