The People, each specifically representing a specific perspective, speaks to the multiple stakeholders that make up our school community. First, is our faith perspective is reflected through the priest on the left side of the logo with a small cross on the person. Second, the children, to the left and right, surround the parent in the center; each with a heart on their person speaks to the heart and soul of our school. Last, you can see to the right, the person with an apple on their person represents the teacher and the academic perspective. Each person illustrates the perspectives that make up the whole of our community.  It is in the collaboration amongst these multiple stakeholders that the true richness of our community unfolds.
