Welcome to Morning Star!
Morning Star School is a Catholic Diocesan school dedicated to meeting the needs of students with learning disabilities and related difficulties. The School strives to develop the student as a whole person, spiritually, academically, socially, emotionally and physically. The student's self-esteem is enhanced in an atmosphere that is both challenging and nurturing. It is a non-graded school for children from the ages of 6 to 16. The Primary/Transitional students (6-9 years) attend self-contained classes, with some grouping according to ability for academic subjects. The Intermediate (9-12 years), Junior High Prep (11-13 years) and Junior High (12-16 years) levels are departmentalized by subject areas and ability-grouped in these areas. The Junior High curriculum offers courses that help prepare students to enter high school.
