Philosophy Statement
Our Academy adopts an academic program with an integrated course of studies, exposing the student to perennial questions and fundamental truth. Integration includes showing the cross-disciplinary nature of learning between subjects and furthermore understanding that there is a hierarchy in the order of learning. This academic program demands discipline and results in exceptional competence in collegiate and post-secondary studies. All modes of teaching are employed at Holy Spirit Academy, as fits the subject. Seminar-style discussions in the Socratic method are commonplace for humanities and theology courses while math and science classes employ interactive exercises and labs. Small class sizes ensure that every student is engaged in the learning process. In conformity with the teaching of the Church, Holy Spirit Academy exists to assist parents in the education of their children. It is Holy Spirit Academy’s conviction that the very best faculty is required to execute the solemn duty of educating our pupils as their parents would wish.
