No. St. Michael's School welcomes all families who are open and willing to learn our Catholic Faith. Our faith curriculum strives to develop strong capable young people who have positive perceptions of themselves and have the confidence to take risks to Lead, Love and Learn.  Our faith is immersed within our school setting to provide opportunities for students to make good decisions and good judgments to cope with the many new challenges in today's world.  We lovingly show the way, prioritizing the teaching of interpersonal skills so they can relate well with others and leave our school with a well-developed spiritual life and empathy for the world around them. 

You can accomplish great things with the tiniest bit of Faith  (Mathew 17: 14 – 20).
