Shepherd
Spotlight
Elizabeth
Armstrong is to be commended for having an
immediate, positive influence on her
classmates and our Good Shepherd community.
Elizabeth came to our school at the
beginning of the year and was selected for
this award by her classmates. She embodies the
spirit of a Good Shepherd student.
Elizabeth not only has a confidence in
her abilities, but, moreover, has a certain
humility that makes others want to be around
her. She
is the first one to sacrifice her own ideas to
embrace those of her peers, encouraging group
togetherness. She
is reverent and respectful with her teachers,
her family, and the school community.
She definitely stops to smell and
appreciate the roses.
Thank
you and Congratulations Elizabeth!

Welcome
to Good Shepherd
Good
Shepherd Catholic School, a fully accredited
PS through 8th grade, is located in the heart
of Santa Cruz County. Within the context of
Christian values, parents and teachers, like a
family, work together towards a common goal.
By striving for excellence, Good Shepherd
gives students the life-long skills of mind
and heart required for self-esteem and service
to others. Good Shepherd is supported by the
parishes of Our Lady Star of the Sea,
Resurrection, and St. Joseph’s and falls
under the auspices of the Catholic Diocese of
Monterey.
Prospective
families may visit the school on Thursdays
from 8 to 10 a.m. This time includes our
school-wide assembly and the chance to observe
specialty classes such as music, Spanish, and
computers.
Tuition
is made affordable through the efforts of
fundraising and community contributions.
To see ways that you can give to the
school, please visit the “Fundraising”
link on the school’s homepage.
The entire community of Good Shepherd
Catholic School thanks you for your support as
we work towards educating the whole child with
faith in the future.
