About Us / Catholic Identity

A living faith, grounded in Christ and his Church.

Catholic Identity

  • All teachers sign an oath of fidelity to the Magisterium of the Catholic church and all classes are imbued with the truth and beauty of our Faith. Religion teachers receive catechist certification and participate in ongoing professional development through the Archdiocese of Louisville to obtain the necessary requirements to teach the Faith.

  • We have adopted the Cardinal Newman Society curriculum standards and are members of both the Institute for Catholic Liberal Education (ICLE, the national support body for Catholic classical education) and the Classical Latin School Association (CLSA)

  • Safe environment training through the Archdiocese of Louisville is required of all adults who are on campus on a daily or regular basis.

  • As a school, we pray the rosary daily and celebrate Holy Mass at least twice a week and on Holy Days of Obligation. We offer biweekly confession to our students, and celebrate First Friday Holy Hours with Eucharistic Adoration and Holy Mass. To encourage vocations to the priesthood, Catholic boys in 4th grade and up are eligible to serve at Mass.

  • We have a school-wide monthly virtues program, based on the Virtues in Action program of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia in Nashville, whereby students receive recognition and encouragement from their teachers and peers for acting virtuously

  • We constantly seek out ways to serve within the school and the community at large.

  • Every homeroom has a patron saint that the students come to know through study of their lives and a prayer of that saint recited each day!

  • Students pray the beautiful centuries old prayer of the Angelus before lunch and the table blessing in Latin.

  • We study scriptures and incorporate prayer into all of our initiatives, and every day, the students are reminded that Christ is the reason for this school!
