Mission Statement

Saint Casimir School is committed to providing the highest standard of education in a Catholic environment. We educate the whole person by focusing on the spiritual, academic, physical and emotional needs of every student. We respect each person, reverence all of life, and are responsible for personal growth.

School Philosophy

Saint Casimir School endorses the call of the Diocese of Manchester and the State of New Hampshire to express its educational ministry through the objectives of personal spirituality, social justice, and a strong academic program in accord with the Curriculum Guide for Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Manchester.

  • To develop the total Christian personality by instilling in the students a respect for life and reverence for Christian living.
  • To develop within the school a strong religious education program based on Catholic Theology, Scripture, Liturgical experience, and service so that each child will grow and mature in the Christian way of life.
  • To facilitate the intellectual, social, and physical development of each child through a variety of instructional methods such as small and large group instruction and tools for basic knowledge and formation.
  • To aid students in the evaluation of their own capabilities and vocational possibilities.
  • It is the consensus of the faculty that every human being has a right to pursue knowledge corresponding with his/her dignity and God-given ability, regardless of background or sex. In the early years, education is of the utmost importance because through education and guidance the children of today become the Catholic citizens of tomorrow.
