The school's philosophy is to provide a holistic formation which the home alone cannot give and to closely collaborate with the latter in those aspects of formation which it can provide. This points to the proper education of the children which is primarily the responsibility of the parents. This education is realized to a great extent depending on the parents' own formation, and also on the teachers who act in their stead at school. This is why SJS provides formation and enrichment activities for the families of the pupils and students. VISION STATEMENT
