Summit Academy is a school committed to excellence! It is committed to passing onto others “the way, the truth and the life” with a firmly rooted foundation in the rich deposit of Faith left by Christ and expounded today in the Authority of the Church.
Our Vision: Education is the key to fostering a society in which the values of Christ in the Gospel are known and lived and is, therefore, a pillar of the New Evangelization.
An informed intellect, a moral character and a vibrant spiritual life grow together for the integral formation of every student.
Crest of Summit Academy:
The Ribbon signifies the presence of our Blessed Mother. The Latin motto “Excelsior” means “Ever Higher” and represents the Academy’s commitment to reach “ever higher” for the Christian ideals.
The Band of Twelve Stars represents the 12 Apostles whose testimonies exemplify the virtues needed to live an authentic Christian life.
The Eagle is a sign of patriotism. This represents the true Christian freedom upon which the United States was founded and we are committed to preserve. It also reinforces our motto.
The Summit represents the summit of perfection the students are challenged to strive for in all aspects of their character.
The Wheat and Grapes represents the gift of the Holy Eucharist. It reminds us to fill ourselves with Christ so that we can give Christ to others.
The Book and the Torch - the book stands for the education of the intellect and the torch symbolizes Faith which illuminates the intellect. Both remain as a condition for Wisdom.
The Cross symbolizes Christ. He is the ideal around whom we center our lives.

Since 1977, Our Lady of Victory School has been providing curricula and textbooks to parents who school their children at home. Our experience as the oldest provider of Traditional Catholic home study materials, as well as our flexibility in tailoring our program to the individual needs of your child, makes OLVS the right choice for home schooling parents who wish to provide a truly Roman Catholic education to their children.
Our Lady of Victory School has developed a very successful Home Study Program for students all across the world! This full educational course, which takes the place of local school participation in grades kindergarten through twelfth, has attracted many students. We service over 5,000 families from Malaysia to Puerto Rico. The majority of our students, who are affiliated in our full enrollment program or our satellite program, hail from the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Our Lady of Victory School's philosophy of education comes directly from the Church, as defined by Pope Pius XI in his encyclical On the Christian Education of Youth: "Education consists essentially in preparing man for what he must be and for what he must do here below, in order to attain the sublime end for which he was created." Accordingly, OLVS believes that the safest road for our Faith to travel is that road which was gloriously traveled by the saints and the holy popes of our Church for over 2000 years. Therefore, you will find we encourage only the Latin Mass, as promulgated by Pope St. Pius V.
The materials used by Our Lady of Victory School reflect back to Christianity and will always inspire the students to reach for the higher good. In Literature, we emphasis the lives of the saints, the glory of the martyrs, and the conquest of virtue. History endeavors to pass on the actual truths of history, focusing on the spread of Christianity and the evil attempts to thwart it. In Grammar, the student will learn the "old fashioned" rules of grammar, progressing to clearly written essays, well-formed term papers, and presenting logical speeches. Our Science curriculum is based on the beauty of God's creation and our attempts to know it. In an effort to help the student glean more from his Catholic heritage, we also offer Latin language electives at many different levels.
We have a solid success rate with our students, many having received full scholarships to prestigious universities, entering above their level at community colleges, and graduating from college with distinction. A number of our students are also serving in various branches of the military while some are pursuing their vocation to the priesthood and the religious life.
