Corpus Christi Catholic School exists as a learning institution based on Gospel principles as handed down by our Catholic tradition. We are a Catholic school offering, in collaboration with Corpus Christi Catholic Parish, the opportunity to educate children in a Catholic environment. We recognize and hold sacred the teachings of the Catholic faith and believe that reinforcement of these teachings is essential in all life situations.

Corpus Christi Catholic School is committed to the total education of each child. We recognize that individual learning styles are important to the success of each student. Curriculum and teaching methods will continually be adjusted to meet the varied needs of the students. Through the use of remediation, enrichment, and the utilization of technology, Corpus Christi Catholic School works to be progressive in the programs offered.

Corpus Christi Catholic School is part of a unified school system owned and operated by the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas. As such, ultimate jurisdiction for the school system rests with the Archbishop of Kansas City in Kansas and/or anybody of individuals to whom he may delegate authority. (Archdiocesan Policy #3000)

The Archdiocesan Office of Catholic Schools serves as a consultant to local school administrators. Canonical authority for the schools rests with the pastor.

Statement of Beliefs

The community of Corpus Christi Catholic School believes:

• That all children are sacred creations of God. As a Catholic school community, home, and parish we must provide creative opportunities for children to learn and apply knowledge and skills in ways that draw them closer to God and one another.
• That a safe, non-threatening learning environment promotes feelings of self-worth and school pride.
• That all children want to and can:
  • Be loved and respected, while showing love and respect for themselves and others;
  • Be successful learners, achieving their highest potential; and
  • Make good decisions, taking responsibility for their actions.
• That educating children is a shared vocation involving home, school, and parish. Outstanding school communities work collaboratively to maintain high standards of excellence and are committed to continuous improvement.
