Mission Statement

 Bishop Stang High School Crest in colorOur Mission 

Bishop Stang High School is a Catholic, college-preparatory school called to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ by “making known the goodness of God.”  We holistically educate a diverse student body in a respectful, nurturing and disciplined environment.  Our school family inspires young people to excel in learning and life through growth in faith, integrity, knowledge and service. 

The Bishop Stang "Why"

We exist to inspire the growth and development of our students by sharing our passions, faith, and love. We foster talents and ignite voices to encourage students to live out their gifts from God. 
 

The Charism of Bishop Stang

A charism is a gift freely given by God to a person or community, for the good and service of others in bringing about the Kingdom of God.  Religious communities seek to live the charism which is received through their founders as God's gift to the Church.  Bishop Stang High School was originally staffed by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. We remember our past, rooted in the message of Saint Julie Billiart, the foundress of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.  Saint Julie dedicated herself to the education of the poor and responded to Christ's love in serving the needs of others with true goodness of heart. We respond to her example of "making known the goodness of God."
 
 

Prayer of St. Julie Billiart

Almighty & eternal God, you called St. Julie Billiart to respond joyfully to the love your crucified Son in dedicating herself to the education of the poor.  Grant that her prayer and example may inspire us to respond with love of His Cross in serving the needs of others with true goodness of heart.  Amen.
