Faces of Catholic Education

Educators and staff with heart and a passion for learning.

Catholic schools are unique learning environments where children not only receive an excellent education but also grow in their faith and build strong foundations for life. The key to this enriching environment is our educators. It is through their care, expertise, and commitment to learning that students can realize their fullest potential.

We also strive to make our Polk Catholic Schools great places to work, providing more freedom for educators to teach and further student development within a safe, caring atmosphere. Our teachers enjoy being part of a Catholic school because they:

  • Get a competitive salary, benefits, and retirement plan

  • Are in an environment embodies our Christian values and morals

  • Have more freedom to differentiate instruction in order to meet every student’s needs

  • Encounter less bureaucracy

  • Have less pressure to teach to standardized testing

  • Work in a caring and loving family-type environment

  • Are in a safe and secure workplace
