Our Lady of Talpa School is focused on creating a safe environment for students to deepen their faith lives while achieving academic growth. As a member of the Daughters of Charity network, we are committed to preparing our students to truly become “people of service who see the face of God in everyone, committed to living out their Vincentian values.” Talpa also partners with the Catholic Schools Collaborative (CSC), a non-profit organization focused on building academic capacity. Because of these systems of support, we have been able to accelerate tremendous academic growth which we hope to build on in the years to come.
Our goal is for students to achieve 2 years worth of gains in one academic year. While this may seem like a lofty aim, it has become achievable thanks to maximizing bell-to-bell instruction, frequent data from assessments, well-trained and dedicated educators, and sharing high expectations with parents’ support at home.
We provide students with a transformative Catholic education by attending Mass weekly and providing meaningful opportunities for service and apostolic reflection.
I encourage you to visit, email me, or call the office to learn more about our school and the ways God is working wonders within our Talpa community.
