Religious Faith/Programs/Masses
St. Rocco School is a Catholic elementary school within the Diocese of Providence, Rhode Island. The foundation of the philosophy of St. Rocco School is the person of Jesus Christ. Inspired by Him and sustained by the love of the Sacred Heart, we aim at providing quality education by assisting the child’s spiritual, intellectual, physical, moral, and aesthetic development in order that each child acquire a sense of responsibility toward God, himself and others. The purpose of the school is to expose the students to a Christian way of life based on the Gospels and the democratic principles of freedom, equality, and respect for the rights of the individual.
​
Here at our school, we prayer & worship as a community. All students, faculty and staff begin and end each day with prayer. Also, we show our love for God daily through our words and actions. We strive to live our motto of "Sharing the Love of the Heart of Christ" each and every day! The students parents, extended family and community members are welcome to attend any school liturgies. Respectful participation of every student is required at school liturgies.
