Academics
Jesus clearly stated in the the Gospel of John, "The truth will set you free."
The ultimate purpose of education must, therefore, be the pursuit of truth. From the truth of academic subjects, students move to the truth of faith, and finally to the eternal Truth, who is our Heavenly Father.
In order to pursue the truth, our academic program follows a time-tested model that began in Ancient Greece, was spread by the Roman Empire, and has been improved over time by the Church. Rather than view each discipline as a separate subject, we attempt to show students where different courses intersect and integrate. The foundation of learning is imitation or "mimetic instruction." Students learn fundamental facts, but they also learn how to think logically and critically. Communication skills are emphasized so that our graduates move on with the ability to write and speak effectively and persuasively, but always in pursuit of the truth.
