This school endeavors to nurture the spiritual, physical, intellectual, and emotional aspects of a child’s development. We are rooted in the values of Roman Catholicism and as such, we aspire to assist our students in becoming well-rounded, kind, intelligent, and service-oriented human beings as modeled for us by our Savior, Jesus Christ.
St. Clare of Assisi-St. Francis Xavier School is an integral member of the Morris Park section of the Bronx.
We strive to provide a holistic education which incorporates both academic excellence and a strong foundation in the Catholic faith. Therefore, we prioritize critical thinking, collaborative learning, and the pursuit of knowledge in various subjects.
We provide a faith-based curriculum that allows for the spiritual formation of our children. By integrating Catholic values into our teaching, we allow students an opportunity to deepen their understanding of Catholic traditions, sacraments, scripture, and moral principles. Regular prayer, participation in liturgical celebrations, and service to others are important aspects of the school’s daily life.
We understand that the 21st century poses unique challenges and opportunities to those who are prepared for them and so we live by our motto: Steadfast in faith, Forward in hope!
We respect the diversity of the school community and remember that each human being is created in the image and likeness of our Lord.
