Catholic Education is rooted in the belief that every person is created in love by God, in His very image, for the purpose of sharing in the fullness of life with Him now and forever.

Catholic Schools and Faith Formation programs of the Diocese of Buffalo prepare our children for what they are called to be, equipping them intellectually, and enriching them with a sense of justice and responsibility for others.
