INCARNATION CATHOLIC SCHOOL

Embracing the Catholic Traditions

This is what God asks of you, only this:
To act justly, to love tenderly, and to walk humbly with your God.
Micah 6:8

The prophet Micah reminds us that we have been greatly blessed by a generous and loving God, a God who has gifted our school community with the talent to work together to develop a framework for Incarnation School’s approach to our future and that of our Church. In return, our God asks us “to act justly, to love tenderly, and to walk humbly” with Him on our faith journey. As members of a strong Christian community, confident in our relationship with God and one another, we are able to rise to this challenge and become beacons of light for the world community. The following Vision, Mission, and Belief Statements of Incarnation Catholic School reflect our commitment to live up to these expectations, so simply stated by Micah many years ago.
