Our Core Values
Faith in Our Children, Hope for Their Future, Love for One Another

At Christ Our King-Stella Maris School we believe that it is our children who are the inheritors of the earth. Our commitment is to teach them first and foremost to live with an abiding Faith in God and to value and respect each and every human being in God’s creation. Our students know that they must appreciate and use the gifts that they have been given for the good of all and for the glory of God. We strive always to become academically excellent, to foster their spiritual, physical and emotional growth and most of all to love one another. It is a lofty goal, but together, it is something we can do.
