Honesty is the Best Policy

In our effort to encourage “character through faith” all community members are encouraged to be truthful in all situations. In all cases of behavioral intervention where a member is held accountable for his/her choices, the outcome of the disciplinary action will result from that members' ability and willingness to be truthful and accept personal responsibility.

A Partnership in “Character Through Faith.”

At Immaculate Conception Catholic Regional School we strive to encourage “character through faith.” Our code of conduct calls all members of this community to act in the best interest of all. Our Christian identity reminds us that all persons are made in the image of God with the potential to adopt appropriate and life-affirming attitudes, actions, choices and values.
