Mother Mary School, as a Catholic School, integrates education
with Christian values of love and life based on the principles of
the Gospel. We highly esteem the partnership we share with
parents whose role is explicitly stated in
Vatican II Declaration on Christian Education as follows: ...We
have a most solemn obligation to educate these offspring. Hence,
parents must be acknowledged as the first and foremost educators
of their children. Their role as educators is so decisive that
scarcely anything can compensate for their failure, for it
devolves on parents to create a family atmosphere so animated with love and reverence for God and man that a well-rounded
personal and social development will be fostered among the
children... The Vatican 11 Declaration on Christian
Education further reminds parents to:
- Have respect for human dignity, prayer, and acknowledgment
authority as Essential for Christian citizenship.
- Train their children in corporate worship, through family
prayer, family participation in the Eucharistic celebration of
the parish and the reception of The sacraments.
- Participate in the building of the community and service of
their parish and town.
