Terra Nova Test Results - 2002-2003Students in Catholic Schools are immersed in an environment that challenges each student to live a life of high morals based on the "Teachings of Christ" and to achieve his/her highest academic potential. High expectations and a basic core curriculum for all students are among the complex assortment of characteristics attributed to the success of our Catholic schools. This success is dramatically indicated in the results of the TERRA NOVA Tests of Basic Skills recently taken by students in Grades 2-8 at St. Valentine School.
