Classroom Teachers
Holy Spirit Catholic School employs qualified teachers who have a deep commitment to Catholic education and serve as role models for our students, helping them to develop a positive self-image and a sense of self-discipline. Our dedicated teachers are constantly finding new ways to engage our students - at Holy Spirit, we have a passion for learning and we hope to pass that on! Staff and administration structure the curriculum to meet or exceed California Common Core State Standards and Diocesan standards in all academic areas. Most importantly, our staff and administration provide a caring, nurturing environment that enables each student to grow in their love of God, their family, their fellow students, and all of God’s creation.
