There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different kinds of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. (1 Corinthians 12:4-6)
Cardinal Virtues
The Cardinal virtues of Prudence, Temperance, Justice and Fortitude anchor our Catholic identity. Each is essential to the St. Gabriel’s experience, where we prize educating the whole child through deliberate and intentional formation in a faith-filled community. Daily and weekly activities are designed to enlighten and reinforce these foundational tenets.
Morning Assembly and Prayer
Each Monday, our community comes together in prayer to remind us of why we are here, providing context to our learning and reinforcing expected behaviors. This time provides an opportunity to highlight achievements, sports and academic successes and to share important information for the week.
Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)
Social and emotional well being are essential to the education of the whole child. In non-religious schools, this approach is often referred to as Social and Emotional Learning (SEL). It is well researched and has led to new and effective pedagogical approaches. Our Catholic values go hand and hand with SEL, and our faculty is well trained in methodology which supports our goal of improving consistency, delivery, and outcomes. It is our mission and calling to care for the whole child and mold them into their best possible selves.
