Thank you for helping us. Our children know that their families and this community believe in Catholic education. Thank you for your kindness and generosity and showing our children how special they are to us.

It was a wonderful year with 517 students in Pre-K to Grade 8. Mater Dei Childcare Center is thriving! Imagination Playhouse opened at our Lansdale campus. Program and building enhancements were made. And there’s more...

Faith, Excellence, Service, Community... the hallmarks of Mater Dei Catholic School

5

Faith• 517 students live their faith daily through prayer, actions, and sacraments.

• Mater Dei recognizes parents as partners in the religious education of their childrenthrough their modeling of faith in action.

6

ExcellenceDuring the last six years, students have been awarded more than $1,000,000 in scholarships by prestigious high schools in the Philadelphia area.

Mater Dei was awarded the 2018 National Blue Ribbon by the U.S. Department of Education. This designation marks a wonderful moment in Mater Dei’s history. It also recognizes the hard work of our students and teachers.

7

ServiceMater Dei Catholic School students live the values of Catholic education by serving their local communities. Students volunteer to visit area nursing homes and homeless shelters, as well as help stock area food cupboards and support area families who need a helping hand.

8

CommunityCommunity, the fourth hallmark at Mater Dei was added to the mission a few years after the school was established as a response to the request of our parents.

Through a variety of outreach programs, home and school work together to support and celebrate family life.
