I wholeheartedly support the mission of St. Ann School as well as the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington's philosophy on physical education as an integral part of the educational program. It is my goal that through participating in physical education, all St. Ann students will gain the skills, knowledge and confidence necessary to live life to the fullest and take on any adventure. By fostering an environment of good sportsmanship and acceptance of all levels of abilities in physical education, it is also my hope that every Mustang will find their roots and the value of a physically active lifestyle. No matter where they are on this journey, I hope that they find strength in the words of St. Francis de Sales to "be who they are and be that well."

Catholic Diocese of Wilmington's Physical Education Philosophy

Physical Education is an integral part of the Catholic school's total education program. As such, it strives to develop qualities which enable students to "play a constructive role in a changing world" through the study of physical, affective, cognitive, and social-emotional development.

In an atmosphere that encourages self confidence, students are able to make decisions, work cooperatively, and engage in new experiences which will enable them to make healthy lifestyle choices. Recognizing God's gift of life and movement, participation in physical activities contributes to the acquisition of physical, social and psychological skills.

Mission Statement

St. Ann School educates each student in the Catholic tradition of faith, academic excellence, and service while guiding them to lead as disciples of Jesus Christ.
