St. Clement of Rome School

    Welcome to St. Clement of Rome Catholic School. Our goal is to not only educate the students through academics, but to also instill in our students a commitment toward the daily practice of Christian Witness, and to develop a strong foundation of Christian Values that will carry them throughout life. Since our opening in 1954, St. Clement of Rome Catholic School has provided its students with a solid religious and academic curriculum. Additionally, our students have the opportunity to participate in weekly Mass. Furthermore, the students’ academics are enriched through weekly participation in Music, Art, Spanish and Physical Education classes.
 
   The faculty and staff of St. Clement of Rome Catholic School consist of 33 members. We serve Kindergarten through Eighth Grade, with two classes at each grade level. Other than our homeroom and special area teachers, we also have the following specialists on staff at St. Clement of Rome Catholic School: a full-time Coordinator of Religious Education, a full-time Learning Consultant, a Technology Coordinator, a Technology Specialist, a Librarian, and a full-time Nurse.

    For further information, please continue to visit our website, contact our school office, or schedule an appointment for a tour of our exceptional school.

Educational Direction Statement

The educational mission of the Catholic Church finds its center in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Through education, the Church seeks to prepare her members to hear, live and proclaim the the Gospel.

St. Clement of Rome School provides deliberate and systematic instruction in both formal and informal educational settings which develop the skills, knowledge, and values needed for life.  We are a vibrant school community dedicated to excellence in the areas of academics, communication and faith formation.   We strive to meet the individual needs of our students as we nurture their God given talents and gifts.
       As a follower of Jesus, every student is called to practice Gospel values, especially love of God, neighbor and self; to accept difficulties with courage; and to give good example. Students are encouraged to help those in need and to respond to the wider global community. In doing so the child fosters personal worth, the growth of relationships and the establishment of the climate necessary for effective learning.
       The parish community shares responsibility for providing Christian witness, resources, and leadership, which support the educational mission.
       Parents are called as first educators of their children in faith and knowledge. Parents and teachers, in partnership, share principles of the Gospel, promote Christian engagement in the world, and help to strengthen Catholic identity.

Four-fold Components of Effective Catechesis

Foster community:    

    We nurture and support one another in an atmosphere of mutual concern and respect.

Respond in service: 

    We recognize needs and reach out to others sharing our gifts and talents.

Unite in worship:   

    We gather to witness, to pray, to worship, and to grow closer to Jesus as we celebrate our identity in word and sacrament.
