Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic School exists to support the parents in their role as the primary educator of their children in the Catholic faith and to educate those parish children whose families are committed to the Catholic faith and a Catholic education. All parents and guardians must also be aware of their obligation to model Christ and the Church’s teachings, which includes our obligation to participate in Mass weekly.
