MISSION
St. Ambrose School provides a foundation of Catholic truths and values. Students will leave with the knowledge and skills necessary for life in the modern world.
We believe that each child is a unique person created by God to fulfill a special purpose in the world. Thus, it is the responsibility of the Catholic school to ensure that the Christian potential of each child is reached by developing and strengthening the whole person — spiritually, morally, intellectually, physically, and socially.
We believe that the parents are the first and foremost educators of the child in the ways of faith. It is through them that the child first receives an insight into God’s love and acquires Christian attitudes and values. It is only through mutual cooperation and support by both home and school that the interests of the child can be served best. By our actions together, we serve as living witnesses of the Good News and sharers of the faith, thus empowering the child to be developed for the service of others and to take a rightful place in answering God’s call.

The girls look forward to learning and going to school and we cannot ask for much more than that. We are forever grateful for all the hard work that is put towards helpful to form them into the great little people they are today.
Our children have benfited immensely from the well-rounded educational experience at St. Ambrose. Not only have they grown academically, they've also gained spiritually and socially. It's comforting knowing our kids are at a school with staff and peers that have known them for years and share values similar to our own.
