PHILOSOPHY:
We
believe that our school will lead students toward a deeper knowledge of
Jesus Christ to give them a fuller meaning of their existence and
develop a community faith in an atmosphere permeated with the Gospel
spirit of love. We accomplish this within the guidelines of the Catholic
Church and the Diocese of Allentown, in accordance with the requirements
set forth by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

ABOUT US:
Located
in Laureldale, Pennsylvania, we are a fully accredited regional Catholic
School which serves students from urban, suburban, and rural areas in
grades preschool through grade eight. Our newly-constructed facility
includes a large computer lab and library, gymnasium with retractable
bleachers, and a social hall with modern cafeteria facilities.
Holy Guardian Angels Regional School's academic, athletic, and religious
education programs recognize and respect the diversity of backgrounds as
well as the talents of our students. We are mindful of the need to
develop and promote a Christian student relationship focused on loving
and serving God, self and others, while striving to achieve high
academic standards in order to become open-minded individuals who love
and contribute to the community. An atmosphere of peace and justice
exists within our school community and is supported by our discipline
policies.
The class sizes
are limited to afford each student individual attention; which, in turn, fosters
community awareness and the nurturing of life-long learners.
Students leaving
Holy Guardian Angels Regional School take with them a greater sense of pride,
self-esteem, and accomplishment. A strong foundation for life is
constructed at Holy Guardian Angels.
