Mission Statement
Philosophy of Education
Seeing and forming Christ in the student is the object and raison d'être of the Poor Clare Missionary Sister; therefore, she considers her teaching profession a true vocation and apostolate of the Church. This teaching vocation is carried out by each sister at Santa Clara every day.
Our Approach
Served by the Poor Clare Missionary Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, in Santa Clara we believe children learn from experience and involving activities, according to the phrase Benjamin Franklin used to say: “Tell me, and I forget; teach me, and I remember; involve me and I learn.” In Santa Clara we live the values of faith, charity, hope, loyalty, honesty, and improvement; having the goal to form Christ in each student, which is forming good leaders for tomorrow from the very basic principles of a good citizen.
Facilities and Programs
We provide a nurturing environment and high-quality preschool class and playground equipment and materials to help the development and creativity of the children. Our curriculum is based on Religion, English Language, Math, Science, Arts and Crafts, and Social skills assignments. We offer multiple programs catering to different age groups and special celebrations throughout the year.
