St Catherine of Siena Academy
Biography
Formation in authentic Christian womanhood is at the heart of the educational mission of the Academy. The curriculum has been designed to facilitate this mission. The Academy will create an environment and employ a pedagogy iniquely suited to the needs of young women with the explicit purpose of educating and forming them to fulfill their unique vocations as women. Accordingly, our mission acknowledges the gift of motherhood to which all women are called, whether physical or spiritual. The perception that women’s education and the vocation to motherhood are in opposition to one another is a false dichotomy and women’s education has suffered as a result. There is a distinction between vocation and career and our mission at St Catherine of Siene Academy is to prepare young women for both.
Ultimately, our missioninvolves the happiness of the young women entrusted to us. It is God’s desire that all of His children achieve true happiness. Yet, lasting happiness is not possible without the development of virtue which must be cultivated in conformity with the truth. The truth is that women have a great and noble calling whih is a distinct part of God’s plan for the salvation of the world. St Catherine of Siena Academy will provide an education of heart, mind and soul that corresponds to so marvelous a calling.
