Rooted in the faith-filled heritage of our parish, the mission of St. Fidelis School is to
Embody faithfully,
Educate exceptionally,
Cultivate tenderly,
a Christ-centered life for and with the children we are blessed to teach.
St. Fidelis School is a Catholic elementary school playing a vital role in the College Point, New York community to educate all students and develop academic programs which meet their needs. In turn, these are an integral part of developing the spiritual, intellectual, social and academic excellence of those we serve. We strive to teach each child as an individual and to help every student to learn to communicate his/her ideas, thoughts, and feelings to others in ways that produce a sense of fulfillment. We provide a challenging and loving environment so that each child can succeed at higher levels of learning.
We believe that the Christ spirit within each of us shines more brightly and becomes a part of how we treat one another and those we serve. The administration and faculty, together, are positive role models who encourage our students to develop mutual respect, honesty and responsibility. We believe that only through working together with the home, school and Church can the child grow to his/her potential. We believe in the importance of honest communication between all who are involved in the development of the child.
Through the development of human potential and the integration of spiritual values, each student will be capable of contributing fully to his/her community. He/she will become a successful citizen appreciating, honoring, and embracing the eternal God.
