Teachers are engaged in an ongoing catechetical certification process, as prescribed by the California Bishops. This is a three-year process including a 6 week Catholic Theology course through the STEP Program at the University of Notre Dame. Ongoing catechetical formation provides renewal every three years.
At Saint Anne School, we are proudly Catholic. We are accepting of students from all faith or non-faith backgrounds and over one-third of current students are non-Catholic. We feel strongly that this diversity, in a spirit of acceptance, inclusion and welcome, strengthens the catholicity of our school. Children are taught to greatly value acceptance, tolerance and inclusion and every student and staff member makes a five point pledge to uphold these values fostering a strong and safe community where all students are “upstanders” not “bystanders” whenever they see that these values are not being respected.
