These are the values that shape us
Anchored by our four core values, Totino-Grace students are engaged, joyful, value their teachers and peers, and have a strong desire to succeed.
Every student will participate in a deep and meaningful sense of community that inspires students to know God and enhance their faith life.
Every student has the capacity to collaborate together and participate in innovative and rigorous opportunities that ignite learning.
Every student will experience a safe, supportive, and diverse environment and build meaningful relationships with their peers and teachers.
Students will learn what it means to serve others through a variety of volunteer opportunities, classroom projects, and service trips.
Attributes that drive success every day.
Totino-Grace fosters wholeness and holiness through experiences that challenge students to take an active role in the learning process. As the world's needs evolve, so must the education of our students. Ten core competencies make up our Portrait of a Graduate; strengthening our students to navigate the world's complexities long after they move on from TG.

Our students have the capacity to overcome fear and make decisions based on their values and moral convictions.
Curiosity
Our students eagerly explore the world around them.

Honoring the Journey
As a graduate of TG, I know first-hand how this learning community positively impacted my life, my relatives’ lives and my classmates’ lives. We are abundantly blessed to be able to send our daughter to TG. The low teacher-student ratio has allowed the educators to quickly get to know her strengths in order to build upon them while also cultivating new areas of academic growth. As a result, she is thriving. From athletics and clubs to campus ministry and serving others, she is growing in ways we could not have imagined thanks to the staff who encourage students. It goes without saying that the Totino-Grace community has been an immeasurable gift to our daughter and to our entire family.

I came to Totino-Grace because I remember on my shadow day I realized how much every student knew one another. I really liked the classes, how they worked, and how the teachers cared about every student. I am really able to grow through the community and explore different areas that other schools might not have. I was in math team and soccer at the same time, while also being in LINK crew and part of Spanish club. Everyone is able to find their spot here.

It is just a great school. You get a great education here. I don’t think there’s any other school that could beat the teachers here. I loved my four years here and I am so happy I chose TG.
