Holy Family Academy is a private, Catholic school teaching grades 7-12 in the classical tradition. Holy Family Academy's essential mission is summarized in a few words that Benedict XVI addressed to Catholic educators in America: First and foremost every Catholic educational institution is a place to encounter the living God who in Jesus Christ reveals his transforming love and truth. [1] This is our mission: to be a school where students can encounter the living God in liturgy and in prayer, in classes and in conversation, in studies and in sports, in fellowship and in friendship.
