 Experienced Teacher + Quality Instruction+ Small Class Size
Kolbe School's traditional K-8 liberal arts program offers direct instruction by experienced teachers in small, multi-level classes that allow for individual attention and the recognition of the uniqueness of each student.
The mission of St. Maximilian Mary Kolbe School is to provide for our students a solid formation in the Catholic faith and a challenging liberal arts education.
In light of the Vatican II Declaration on Christian Education, and John Paul II's Apostolic Exhortation on the family, Familiaris Consortio, our goal is to support parents as the first and foremost educators of their children by providing an atmosphere that maintains and fosters the Christian spiritual, intellectual, moral, and physical formation that the students receive at home.
Placing our trust in Jesus Christ, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, under the protection of His Holy Mother and Saint Maximilian Mary Kolbe, we pledge to foster a school community that remains loyal to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church and its call for lay action. As families and faculty, we shall work together to help each student achieve their maximum academic potential while experiencing God's love in all aspects of daily living.

 Ville de Marie Academy, located in Scottsdale, Arizona is a non-profit, private, independent Catholic K through 12 school, grounded in “The First Principle and Foundation” of The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola, loyal to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church, teaching truth, beauty, and goodness by means of an integrated classical liberal arts curriculum using the time-honored Ignatian method of education and the Trivium (Grammar, Logic and Rhetoric) in an atmosphere and environment conducive to the spiritual and intellectual formation of the “whole” person where the Catholic faith permeates all subjects.
The daily life at Ville de Marie Academy begins with morning prayers in the chapel followed by four classes, lunch, the Angelus mid-day prayer in the chapel, three classes, campus clean up and chores, end of day prayers, and dismissal. Integrating prayer, study, and work is essential to forming the whole person.
The classical liberal arts curriculum emphasizes basic learning skills that help the student learn to:
- listen attentively
- read perceptively and critically
- write effectively
- speak clearly and confidently
- think analytically
- integrate math skills
- establish proficiency in the scientific method
 Ville de Marie Academy's Philosophy and purpose is to:
- Assist parents as they fulfill their vocation as the primary educators of their children.
- Promote, through example and instruction, the virtues of faith, hope, and charity exemplified by Our Lord, the Blessed Virgin Mary and the saints.
- Foster in our students a love of learning for its own sake, and to equip them with the tools of learning for a lifetime.
- Train the memory, understanding, and the will through the disciplined exercise of good study habits, and self-control.
- Establish a good work habit in each student by means of assuming and carrying out assigned cleaning chores at school, and community service.
- Create the opportunity for genuine excellence by challenging and encouraging students to reach their potential by developing and using his or her God-given talents to the fullest.
- Provide a classical education in the liberal arts using the discipline of the Trivium-Grammar, Logic and Rhetoric, enabling our graduates to read critically, write cogently, and speak convincingly, all with confidence.
- Establish a Catholic community of learners in which modesty, courtesy, integrity and charity animate and guide the life of the school and students.
- Prepare our students for a life of active and faithful service to the Church and the world.
