Welcome to the Bishop John King Mussio Central Elementary School Website. Our school provides for the education of the whole child by integrating religious principles into its learning curriculum. Students grow both in their Catholic faith and beliefs, as well as academically, in a nurturing and safe environment.
Bishop John King Mussio Central School is unique in that we are situated on two campuses both containing early childhood programs through sixth grade. This configuration supports a family environment which allows the older students to act as mentors for the younger students. A strong academic curriculum, following the Ohio State Standards, is supplemented by high expectations of our students. The faculty consists of state-certified teachers who are committed to creating a faith environment and building Christian community between the staff, parents, and students.
Rooted in the traditions of the Catholic faith, the latest in teaching methodology and creative learning is utilized. Small class size, music, art, physical education, guidance program, library centers, enrichment and remediation programs are incorporated into the school program. Parents play an integral part in the school program. Active parent committees work to support the school and work as a team with the school administration and teachers.
A strong Catholic identity is evidenced through weekly Masses, Diocesan certified catechists, daily Religion classes, daily assembly for morning prayer, rosary recitation, sacramental preparation, celebration of the Sacrament of Reconciliation, prayer services, visits in the classroom by parish priests, service opportunities, and Diocesan approved instructional materials.
Bishop John King Mussio Central Elementary School is a new school yet a school built upon the foundation of nearly a century of Catholic Education in the Steubenville Diocese. We welcome you to visit the website. We extend an invitation to visit either of the two campuses.
In Christ,
Mrs. Theresa DiPiero, Principal
