Our Philosophy
We believe that, no matter what the circumstances, every
child has the right to learn. We embrace the axiom that "We
are called to teach as Jesus taught." We strive to foster spirtual,
intellectual, and Christian values. We believe in reinforcing Catholic
tradition through daily religious instruction and through the incorporation
of Christian values within the curriculum we teach.
The educational program is an on-going process of working with the student in developing his/her potential as well as a positive self-concept as a child of God. Thus, the student prepares himself/herself to assume a role as a contributing, Christian member of society.
The ideal of educating the whole child permeates every school activity. The teachers and staff within the educational process create an atmosphere of positive awareness in the areas of spiritual, ethical, intellectual, emotional, cultural, social, and development in meeting the needs of each student.

History
Our Lady of Perpetual Help School was founded in 1946 and administered
by the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word until 1972. From
1972 to 1995, OLPH was administered by The School Sisters of Notre
Dame. Due to family petitions in 1995, the Diocese of Dallas agreed
to keep the school open and a lay principal began as administrator.
Today the school continues with its commitment to Catholic education,
and is dedicated to both the spiritual and academic growth of all
of its students.
