Our founders, the Sisters of Divine Providence, envisioned a La Roche education as one that fosters deep respect for others, a genuine acceptance of differences, an abiding tolerance of disagreement, and an unwavering resolve to settling conflict without resorting to hatred or violence. Today’s students are tomorrow’s global leaders and public servants, and we are committed to providing them with the education and experiences necessary to live responsibly, respectfully and with integrity.
