Our Workplace
Praise, reverence, and service should mark the relationship that exists not only between teachers and students, but among all members of the school community. Ideally, Jesuit schools should be places where people are believed in, honored and cared for; where the natural talents and creative abilities of persons are recognized and celebrated; where individual contributions and accomplishments are appreciated; where everyone is treated fairly and justly; where sacrifice on behalf of the economically poor, the socially deprived, and the educationally disadvantaged is commonplace; where each of us finds the challenge, encouragement, and support we need to reach his or her individual potential for excellence; where we help one another and work together with enthusiasm and generosity, attempting to model concretely in word in action the ideals we uphold for our students and ourselves.
