Mission Statement

The mission of Archbishop Shaw High School is to provide a formation for young men that prepares them for life and fosters their college preparatory education. This is accomplished in a manner that is Catholic and Salesian, embodying Don Bosco’s Preventive System of Education: Reason, Religion, and Loving-Kindness. Our Core Values state that we are:

  • A HOME that welcomes; where the young experience love, acceptance, and mercy.
  • A SCHOOL that prepares for life; where we practice integrity, dedication, and tenacity.
  • A CHURCH that evangelizes; where we model faith and service.
  • A PLAYGROUND where the young can joyfully meet and make friends for life.
