About
Us
St. Agatha School is a Christian Catholic Community
that excels in education. Our school opened in 1941
and was located on Fr. Carney Drive in Milton. The school
was then relocated to its current spot in 1951. St.
Agatha School is New England Association of Schools
& Colleges (NEASC) accredited. Our students receive
a strong, moral, spiritual, academic, and social foundation
that challenges each and every one of them to be the
best they can be.
Mission
Statement
The
purpose of the St. Agatha School mission statement is
to clearly articulate the foundational principles, upon
which our every objective, policy and action as teachers
of The People of God rests. As we “set out into
the deep” in this new millennium, the policies
stated in this Parent/Student Handbook are meant to
assist us on “a voyage of discovery,” a
voyage that will lead each of us to share in the fulfillment
of our shared mission, as stated below:
We, the members of St. Agatha School, supported by our
parish, form a Christian community with excellence in
education as our goal. Our mission is to proclaim the
Gospel, build a faith community, celebrate through worship
and serve others. We welcome and support a diverse cultural
and economic population, which is a hallmark of our
Catholic identity. We strive to generate a climate that
is permeated by the Gospel spirit, one that encourages
teachers, students, and families to become one community
of learners, and prepares us for our contribution to
society in the future.
Philosophy
The mission of St. Agatha School is to “Teach
as Jesus Did”(Pastoral Message of the Bishops
of U.S. Catholic Conference, 1972). We believe that
Christ is the model on whom Christian life is shaped.
We strive to generate a community climate that is permeated
by the Gospel spirit of freedom and love.
Catholic Christian principles are integrated in the
teaching of all academic subjects. Faith formation,
social awareness, and responsible decision-making are
essential elements in the education of each child. Enrichment
programs and service projects broaden the student’s
perspectives and prepare them for their contribution
to society in the future.
School Pledge
Because Saint Agatha School is a Christian, Catholic
Community with “Excellence in Education”
as our goal, I will:
•
See Jesus in every member of this community
• Treat others the way I would want to be treated
• Do nothing to prevent the teachers from teaching
and anyone, including myself, from learning
• Help create and maintain a safe and positive
learning environment
• Come to school prepared for learning
• Show respect for school and personal property
• Act responsibly and accept the consequences
for my actions
• Help everyone at Saint Agatha School feel capable,
connected, and contributing.
