Mission of
Seton |
The mission of Seton
Catholic High School is to call its students to full participation in
a community of faith in which Gospel values and Catholic Church
teachings are integrated into the lives of the students. Central to
this call is the challenge to all students to achieve superior
standards of educational excellence so they will be fully prepared to
spread the Gospel and to be contributing members of the Church and
society.
Seton Catholic succeeds with:
