Educating The Whole Person

Catholic

Borromeo Academy is the most significant ministry of Saint Charles Borromeo Parish. The teachings of our Catholic faith are woven throughout our daily lessons, routines, and relationships, creating a culture of communion with God through Jesus in the Holy Spirit. Our Christ-centered approach is founded on truth, charity, and mercy. Scholars and their families learn to actively participate in faith formation through weekly all-school Mass, bi-monthly school-family Masses, Holy Day celebrations, Sacramental preparations, outreach, and volunteer opportunities. “From whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love" (Ephesians 4:16).

Liberal Arts

Our Catholic Liberal Arts Education curriculum educates the whole person: faith, family, community, and morality. Borromeo Academy teachers strive to cultivate wonder through faith-filled environments that inspire minds and enlighten lives. High expectations for scholars, staff, and families help to form true disciples in Christ by instilling the truth and knowledge that each of us are “fearfully and wonderfully made”

(Psalms 139:14)

Early Childhood

Children ages two through five are invited to be members of our Early Childhood Center. Borromeo Academy Early Childhood Center teachers aspire to work alongside these scholars’ parents in forming their young hearts and minds. These little ones learn through modeling, personal experiences, and social interactions. Lessons about God, Jesus, Mother Mary, Saints, and more are prepared to assist these young scholars in experiencing how each individual is made in the image of God. Jesus said, “Let the children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these” (Matthew 19-13-15).

Pre-Kindergarten Through 8th Grade

As a Premier Member School of the Institute for Catholic Classic Liberal Education, Borromeo Academy looks to the teachings of the Church, which encourages scholars to be free thinkers, seeking truth, beauty, and goodness. Monthly virtues guide scholars to become their best version through character and emotional development. Along with the core subjects of History, Language Arts, Math, Science, and Religion, our Catholic Faith is referred to and interwoven throughout the day. Latin is introduced in Pre-Kindergarten, first with songs, stories, and prayers. As scholars continue, Latin is used to teach the origins and derivatives of words, which inspires higher-order thinking. “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).
