Immaculate Conception B.V.M. School, founded in 1895, is located in
Jenkintown, PA. As a Roman Catholic elementary school in the Archdiocese of
Philadelphia, our mission is to infuse Catholic culture and faith into all
areas of our students’ lives.
In an atmosphere of respect and acceptance, faculty and staff
use age-appropriate strategies and techniques to enable students to
experience a variety of concepts while being introduced to the fundamental
skills in a logical and concrete way. Both the didactic and constructivist
theories are evident in moving students toward a higher level of cognitive
development.
Though content aware, we are process oriented to motivate our
children to acquire and use skills needed to be independent learners,
critical thinkers, and creative problem solvers. A cooperative, supportive,
Christian family atmosphere promotes moral, pro-social behavior which
enables each child to live life to the fullest in accordance with the
teachings of Jesus Christ.
