Our mission is to actively seek, educate, and nurture young men and women to become intellectually competent, open to growth, religious, and committed to serving the people of God. In the tradition of St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus, we are committed to the development of the whole person through a challenging educational experience of academic excellence, along with spiritual and religious formation. We support the role of parents as the primary educators and dedicate ourselves to developing leaders who are conscientious, intelligent, morally courageous, and compassionate in service to others.
Our vision is to reach a wide variety of ethnic, socio-economic, and religious backgrounds throughout the world and to prepare our graduates for the potential of assuming leadership roles in the civic, religious, business, and cultural life of their respective ethnicity. It is our hope that our graduates become leaders of tomorrow, reflecting these fine qualities of intelligence, morality, courage, and compassion, so that they may be of greater service to all mankind, all for the greater glory of God.
We provide a sound traditional curriculum in small classes with extensive individual attention. This curriculum is enriched by individualized advanced teaching based on personal interests and needs. We prepare our students for advanced placement where available, and are pursuing implementation of the IB (International Baccalaureate) Program.
The key to the uniqueness of St. Ignatius is its faculty. Not only do we have a remarkable student- teacher ratio (about 1-to-1 in 2005-06), but each member of the faculty is extraordinarily dedicated and well qualified. Almost all volunteer their time with the school, and many have advanced degrees. They are here only because they want to teach and to “give back” by passing on their knowledge, understanding, and guidance to a new generation.
Admission to St. Ignatius is open to all high-school level students based on academic ability as indicated by school records, testing, and previous/current teacher evaluations. In addition, considerable weight is given to a student interview and to parental involvement in the student’s education and development.

St. Bernadette Academy
St. Bernadette Academy was founded by parents whose faith is rooted in the Holy Roman Catholic Church. Our school is dedicated to the presentation of the Catholic Faith in it entirety, the pursuit of truth first and foremest, a high standard of academic achievement attained through a liberal arts curriculum, and allegiance to the Roman pontiff.
Our vision is to foster in the student the knowledge, skills, and habits of mind that enable responsible members of communities to make sound and independent judgements and to enjoy a common heritage of knowledge and beauty.
Classical learning in the Catholic Tradition: St. Bernadette Aacdemy, a private school, offers a classical, liberal arts education in the catholic tradition.
- We are classical in that we seek to form a child’s interest and emotions to recognize, in creation, objective standards of truth and beauty.
- We focus on the liberal arts because these are the skills of learning which make a person free. Our goal is to develop the child in areas of reading and writing, speaking and listeneing, observing, calculating, and judging.
- We teach in the Catholic tradition that there is no conflict between faith and reason and it is essential that both be nour ished in the child.
Our objective at St. Bernadette Academy is to form the whole person, that is, academically, morally, and spiritually. We believe that this education provides the child with the necessary tools, not only to embark on a journey of life-long learning, but also to develop the ability to reach his or her ultimate goal, which is union with God in Heaven.
St. Bernadette Academy recognizes that instruction in the Faith is the most important task we will undertake and that the academic education of our children is necessary and consistent with life under the laws of Almighty God. We also recognize, in accordance with the documents of Vatican II, that parents are the primary educators of their children.

Our Lady of Grace High School is a private, independent, co-educational college preparatory school serving students and their families by providing a classical liberal arts education in the Roman Catholic tradition. Students are expected to achieve academically beyond their expectations, to grow spiritually through study, worship and service and to become leaders and role-models within their secular and church communities by their example and attitudes exemplified in their daily lives.
Philosophy: We believe that parents are the initial and primary educators of their children. It is through a mutual relationship between the parents and school that children are formed and reinforced in their spiritual, emotional, intellectual and physical capacities.
We believe that all students have an innate desire to learn, as well as the right to acquire knowledge, which will enable them to reach their fullest intellectual potential. It is through a variety of teaching methodologies that students’ intellects are challenged so that academic excellence and a love for life-long learning are achieved.
We believe that it is the responsibility of the family and the school, through mutual reinforcement, to set and maintain high standards of moral conduct for all students. These morals, founded in the Gospel principles, are the basis for developing a life of virtue and the path to live in God’s will.
It is through the balanced integration of out Catholic Faith with our experience of learning, life and service that we believe students can possess the abilities of becoming Christian role models and leaders within their secular and church communities.
