Catholic Schools Week

Celebrate this week with us as we join with other schools across the nation in honoring our Catholic faith!

We look forward to seeing you at our open house or shadow day!

National Catholic Schools Week (CSW) is an annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States. The theme this year is “Catholic Schools: United in Faith and Community.” Catholic schools have an irreplaceable role in the Church’s evangelizing mission. Building on the central goal of Catholic schools to form saints, Catholic schools teach and embrace the whole person, body, mind and spirit. The fact that all members of a Catholic school community share the Christian vision of faith that Christ is the foundation of Catholic education is what unites the school as a faith-filled community.

While faith is the binding element in Catholic schools, the Church reiterates that parents are the first teachers of their children. Holding this tenet, Catholic school communities expand beyond the walls of school buildings to envelop the family as an integral part of the school community. Together teachers, administrators, staff, students and parents fuel the light of faith by integrating culture with faith and faith with living.

Find out what makes us Catholic:

DAILY MASS. Set as the foundation of of each school day. Students also participate in the Mass readings and eucharistic adoration one day each week.

REGULAR ACCESS TO THE SACRAMENTS: Each week, students have the ability to go to confession during the school day.

COMMUNITY, CHARACTER, SPIRITUALITY. Our small class sizes and devoted community ensure personalized attention and a supportive environment where students can thrive both academically, spiritually, and personally. In communities of guided peer formation through the House system, students grow in the four cardinal virtues of prudence, temperance, fortitude and justice—the foundation of leadership. Through daily Mass, pilgrimages and retreats, students encounter the love of Jesus Christ and are led to share that love with others as they discern their vocation in life.

CATHOLIC ANTHROPOLOGY INTEGRATED INTO EACH SUBJECT. We integrate Catholic teachings into every aspect of our education, encouraging students to grow in their faith while pursuing academic excellence. Rooted in the classical tradition and developed by experts with doctorates in their fields, our curriculum offers a well-rounded education that cultivates strong intellectual habits of logic and critical thinking where faith and reason are intertwined in every course. Students are shown how God’s Truth exists in all studies and how subjects relate to one another in holy harmony, not in contradiction or isolation.
