Faith in daily life
We are, above all, a Catholic school. Faith is woven into every aspect of life at St. Therese. Your child will grow in a community that learns, serves, plays and prays together.
Daily prayer
St. Therese starts each day in prayer, recognizing our blessings, praying for others and simply showing gratitude for our many gifts.
Weekly Mass
All students and faculty attend weekly Mass as a school community, celebrating Christ’s love. Students are involved at every age, from preschool through 8th grade, whether bringing up the gifts, reading the scriptures or reading a petition. All are welcome and encouraged to participate.
Adoration
Each class spends time weekly in Adoration, quiet prayer before the Blessed Sacrament in the chapel. It is a chance for students to be still, reflect on their blessings and grow closer to God, and we find they treasure it.
Called to serve
We embrace a spirit of gratitude and understand that we are called to serve others. Each year our students pack meals for Feed My Starving Children, assemble Christmas Boxes of essentials for families in need through Sharing & Caring Hands and Mary’s Place, and pack Blessing Bags for the homeless during our St. Therese Feast Day celebration. Students also support the Franciscan Brothers of Peace, the local ICA Food Shelf and Minnetonka Life Resources.
Our patroness
St. Therese of Lisieux, the Little Flower of Jesus, taught that holiness is found in doing little things with great love. Her little way shapes how our students learn to treat one another, in the classroom, the hallway and the world.
Leadership
Students have opportunities to lead and experience different types of prayers, Eucharistic Adoration, weekly Mass, Sacrament of Reconciliation, Rosary, Stations of the Cross, bible reading, and Serving at Sharing and Caring Hands, FMSC Meal pack, and other school-wide service activities.
