At Hastings Catholic Schools, we offer an educational experience where students encounter Christ, grow in knowledge, and become Christian witnesses of the truth of the Gospel. Jesus said to the apostles, "Let the little children come to me." These words of The Master Teacher and Savior propel us in the mission of the Catholic Church to assist parents in their responsibility as primary educators in the ways of faith. For over 100 years the bishops and priests, accompanied by the unequaled sacrifices of the religious sisters and the lay faithful men and women of our parishes of St. Cecilia and St. Michael have met the mission and challenge of Christ to play a part in bringing thousands of children to Christ, our Light.
