Philosophy
Since its founding by the Sisters of Providence in 1923, St. Charles School has provided an
education of the highest academic and moral quality to children of Bloomington’s Catholic community
regardless of social or economic background. St. Charles also welcomes families
from beyond the Catholic community who value a curriculum centered on
Christian values, academic achievement, and personal discipline.
Rich in tradition, St. Charles School has educated thousands of children, instilling
within them, through diverse curricular and extracurricular programs and experiences,
a sense of justice, charity, self-worth, and individual dignity.
A partnership between parents and school staff promotes a sense of family within
our community and creates a special climate for learning that paves the way for
spiritual growth and academic success.
In its preschool through grade eight classes, St. Charles School seeks to shape
its students as members of the world family, promoting the development of world
citizens who understand the diversity of God’s people and accept the stewardship
of His planet Earth.
Students who complete the St. Charles program are expected to reach their full potential
and to be knowledgeable, healthy, and faith-filled children who will grow into responsible,
compassionate, and faithful adult followers of Christ, prepared to pass on
our Catholic traditions and heritage to future generations.
