Spanish
St Frances Cabrini Catholic School offers a Spanish program for students in kindergarten through eight grade.
Art
The philosophy behind the art curriculum is based on the belief that each person is a unique creation, having worth as a child of God, and as a gift of God, possessing many talents. Art is a visual language that can be read and understood by children and teachers alike as an important part of their response to beauty in God’s created world.
Music
Music is a universal language through which one can understand and appreciate the richness and diversity of human experience. Coupled with integration of liturgical music, the student has a unique opportunity for a complete education in the arts, establishing their Catholic identity.
Physical Education
Physical ability is not our most important concern here in our P.E. class. We do want to promote skill development, but our primary goals are to encourage students to try their best, work hard, and always have a good attitude!
Our program consists of a wide variety of activities which will contribute to the physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of the students.
Our goals are as follows:
1. Develop total fitness by increasing strength, stamina, and cardiovascular endurance.
2. Develop better motor skills.
3. Develop social skills such as sportsmanship, team play, and cooperation.
4. Increase interest in activities and games for continuation of physical activity throughout life.
