Integrity -The spiritual and physical integrity of Mary is our guide in ensuring that both as individuals and as a community, our words are in accord with our actions

Excellence – We are committed to the greater good. Excellence is the product of our hard work, individually and collectively, to deliver exemplary outcomes.

Service Orientation – We delight in providing quality service to our stakeholders: the students and their parents, the alumni and our academic and industry partners, the communities and the parishes and the employees and our suppliers.

Teamwork – We value our diversity which allows us to see beyond our limitations and build on our individual strengths to create an environment through empathic listening, learning, changing and serving.

Obedience – Obedience is the key to humility which builds the Catholic leader. We obey those in positions of authority as instruments of the Lord and the policies and rules they implement as specific guides for the realization of the Will of God. For the only necessary thing that we obey is the divine schema expressed through our superiors and the policies which underwent diligently study and evaluation.

Open Communication – We value free exchange of ideas as a way to learn and to live and work harmoniously. We recognize the significance of dialogue, constructive criticism and feedback to a life well lived.
