Catholic Community of Caring


One of the key pillars of St. Timothy School is "Community". At St. Timothy, we strive to develop an open and caring culture that recognizes and appreciates the value of all our stakeholders.


"Building Compassion in Our Schools"

Catholic Community of Caring is a process that empowers students though the modeling and teaching of Gospel values.


Within this process, schools provide an environment whereby the community is empowered to express their faith through all aspects of school life.
