School-wide Learning Expectations

 

School-wide Learning Expectations are defined as what a student should know, understand, and be able to do by graduation. Through the School-wide Learning Expectations, our goal is to develop Catholic learners who are active, faith-filled Catholics, life-long learners, effective communicators, responsible citizens and culturally aware individuals. Our students, parents, teachers, staff, and administration have collaboratively developed these learning expectations to reflect the School Philosophy and Mission Statement of Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic School.
