We are committed to preparing our students to live as stewards of God’s creation by providing a Christ-centered Catholic education, integrating sound Christian principles of faith, service, and leadership with strong academic programs focused on the development of the whole student.

In addition to a full curriculum of religious education, IOPCS begins each school day with prayer to keep us mindful of God’s presence in our lives.
