Teacher Qualifications

Qualified teachers delivering Catholic education

Our Mission

Spiritual Development

The Sisters must become instruments of grace for their students, embodying the dogma and truths of the Faith.

During their Novitiate, they strive for religious virtue, preparing to communicate these values to others. This spiritual commitment enhances their ability to guide and educate.

Support for Catholic Families

The Sisters provide essential academic and spiritual formation, especially when public institutions pose a danger to faith and morals.

Their rigorous training ensures they are equipped to teach at both elementary and higher levels, supporting Catholic families in their children’s education.

Teacher Certification and Development

Juniorate Course of Studies

At St. Thomas Aquinas College, the Sisters conduct a five-year teacher certification program: Philosophical Studies (Logic, Psychology, Cosmology, Metaphysics), Classical teaching methods, and specialized studies for subject certification. Sisters then observe and assist in classes for 2 months and are mentored for the first two years. St. Thomas Aquinas College is fully accredited.

Teacher Qualifications

Teachers at Queen of All Saints must have a Bachelor’s Degree, three or more years of K-12 teaching experience, or special skills and knowledge qualifying them for K-12 instruction.

Continued Education

Certified teachers attend an annual 4-week summer program focusing on new technology and collaborative teaching strategies. They share tools and techniques to enhance instructional methods.

Professional Development and Planning

Regular Meetings

Teachers meet weekly for 40-minute PD/CPT sessions to improve instructional methods, analyze assessments, and participate in department meetings, observations, seminars, workshops, self-study, and coaching.

Professional Learning Community

QAS holds quarterly PLC meetings to address curriculum gaps and resources. Teachers also attend conferences such as Zoomtopia, ISTE, ICTE, and RCM, enhancing their use of technological tools and overcoming distance learning barriers.

Impact on Student Achievement

The effectiveness of professional development is measured by analyzing ERB test results, weekly and quarterly test scores, final exam scores, and RCM test scores and promotions, ensuring continuous improvement in teaching methods and student outcomes.
