Our Catholic Identity
The Catholic faith is the foundation on which St. Vincent de Paul School stands. Using Christ as an example, we welcome all faiths and value our diverse student body. At St. Vincent de Paul School, learning and practicing our Christian faith is an integral part of our daily school life and our identity. Kindergarten through 8th grade celebrates our faith together through daily prayer, religion class, weekly Mass, and through service to our school, parish, and the Mount Vernon community.
We study the four pillars of our faith through our religious curriculum established by the Diocese of Columbus, and we deepen our faith through prayer, traditional devotions and celebrations of the Catholic Church. Sacramental preparation for Eucharist, Reconciliation and Confirmation are incorporated into the curriculum at the appropriate grade levels.
​
St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church is an integral part of the St. Vincent de Paul School identity. The church is where students participate in weekly school mass and act as altar servers and sacristans. It is a pillar of each student's faith development as many of them receive sacraments such as First Communion, Reconciliation, and Confirmation. Not only is the church important to the school but so is it’s clergy..
Values & Committment
As a Catholic school, we are a part of the Diocese of Columbus Catholic school system. A school system that is committed to creating and maintaining an academic climate which provides students the best opportunity to become productive, contributing citizens of their world.
