OUR BELIEFS
In light of Hanson’s mission to educate the whole person, and in the belief that each individual is a child of God, we adhere to the following values:
A. Spiritual Growth
- We value and encourage each student’s faith life by teaching Christian values and doctrine. We take every opportunity to acknowledge God as the main support of life.
- Catholicism is made a living experience in our school by fostering an atmosphere in which faith, love and concern of others is evident.
- The dignity of each student is recognized. We encourage an awareness of that dignity to help each student maintain a healthy self-concept.
- All members of our school community are educated in the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church.
B. Intellectual Growth
- In our school community, each student is provided with the knowledge, skills and critical thinking ability needed to meet the challenge of higher education and to become a productive member of society.
- Our school community encourages our students to strive for academic excellence.
- We strive to broaden and enrich the interest, perspectives, and life of our school community by exposing our students to the appreciation of arts and culture.
C. Emotional/Social Growth
- An atmosphere of trust, honesty, mutual respect, and reverence for others and for self is fostered in our school community.
- Students are taught to take responsibility for their choices and accept the resulting consequences.
D. Physical Growth
- Our school community encourages students to understand the physical body as God’s gift and temple, and they are encouraged to respect the physical body-their own and others.
- Students are provided with an organized, on-going program of physical education, as well as extracurricular activities, to assist with healthy development of the body.
