Our Core Values

About Us

At Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School, our core values shape every aspect of our school community. They are more than words; they are the foundation of how we teach, learn, and grow together.

LOVE
Love is the heartbeat of our school, inspired by Jesus Christ’s love for us. We teach our students that love isn’t just a feeling—it’s an action. Love means treating others with kindness, offering forgiveness, and showing compassion. It’s about seeing the good in every person and treating them with dignity and respect. Sometimes, love requires us to have difficult conversations or take on tough challenges, but it always calls us to do what is right. Love is the foundation of everything we do at Our Lady of Lourdes.

SERVICE
Service is a way of life at our school. Following the example of Jesus, who humbly washed the feet of his disciples, we teach our students that true greatness comes from serving others. Inspired by saints like St. Teresa of Calcutta and St. Vincent de Paul, our students learn to put others before themselves. Through acts of kindness, service projects, and community outreach, they experience the joy of giving and the power of making a difference in the world.

LEARNING
Learning at Our Lady of Lourdes goes beyond textbooks—it’s about inspiring curiosity, fostering growth, and connecting knowledge to real life. We are committed to academic excellence rooted in Catholic values. Our classrooms cultivate a culture of respect, collaboration, and enthusiasm for learning. We believe that a strong, supportive classroom environment allows every child to thrive academically, spiritually, and personally.

INTEGRITY
Integrity is about doing what is right, even when no one is watching. We teach our students to be honest, responsible, and fair in all areas of life. Grounded in our Catholic faith, integrity means making choices that reflect truth and goodness. By modeling and reinforcing these principles, we help our students develop strong moral character and a deep sense of responsibility to themselves and others.

COURAGE
Courage is more than bravery—it’s the strength to live out our faith boldly. At Our Lady of Lourdes, we encourage our students to stand up for what is right, even when it is difficult. Courage means speaking the truth, defending the vulnerable, and staying true to one’s values in the face of adversity. Our students are empowered to live with conviction, to embrace challenges with confidence, and to be courageous witnesses of Christ’s love in the world.

These values define who we are and what we stand for. They shape our students into compassionate leaders, faithful servants, and lifelong learners. At Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School, we don’t just teach values—we live them.
