The Elementary School program at O'Hara is dedicated to the development of the whole student - spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and physically. The elementary years are a time when students "enter to learn." Elementary students build upon their spirit of discovery and eventually define a core value system that will nurture and encourage them throughout their lives. O'Hara's Elementary School students are guided by caring teachers who slowly build each student to become responsible and caring teenagers who will commit to excellence and go forth to serve their school and community .
