Reflection: "The Lord is kind and merciful."

Good Shepherd is a Catholic, coeducational, elementary school that serves students who live in an ethnically, socially, and economically diverse segment of the San Diego Diocesan community. Believing in the value, dignity, and uniqueness of each individual as a child of God, Good Shepherd Catholic School recognizes the right of each child to acquire a quality education.

Good Shepherd Catholic School offers a quality education that nurtures the capacity for life-long learning. A strong academic curriculum allows each student to develop their individual gifts and to work towards their fullest potential. The spirituality of each student is developed and nurtured in an environment where Christian community can be experienced through liturgy, sacraments, and social action. The dedication of the administration, faculty, and staff, along with the cooperation and support of parents, promotes a community of faith that recognizes the uniqueness of each student.

Good Shepherd Catholic School's mission is to challenge its students to attain spiritual, academic, social, and physical excellence, recognizing and assisting parents in their role as primary educator. The student's education enables them to reach spiritual, moral, intellectual, social, physical, and personal maturity. Each child's education allows for academic achievement, and a heightened awareness of the need for Christian citizenship and cultural diversity. We believe that a student's fullest potential is reached in a Catholic faith community.
