Loving hearts
A strong emphasis on social emotional learning is a critical component of student success in any school, but particularly an authentically Catholic School such as ours. We pride ourselves in educating the “whole” child: mind, body, and spirit. In active partnership with parents who are the primary educators of their children, at Catholic Academy of Waterbury, we have several strategic initiatives in place to do just this for all members of our school community.
Partnership with staff and families
Ms. Ashley Skipp, MSW, is our school social worker. She works partners directly with administration, staff, and families to support the well-being of each of our students. Ms. Ashley provides individual or group support to students and can assist in connecting families to community resources.
Classroom teachers employ Friendzy, a standards-aligned, comprehensive social-emotional learning program.
Successful students
Coupled with our small, nurturing, family atmosphere, all of our students are poised for success, both academically and personally, now and in the future.
