The Catholic faith permeates everything we do at Frassati Catholic Academy, as our school’s traditions are founded on the traditions and devotions of the Catholic Church. Every day begins with prayer and celebration of our Catholic community in our prayer space in the heart of our campus. All classes are taught through the lens of the Catholic faith, with students often reading foundational Church documents, the Bible, works by the saints, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Students receive direct instruction in the faith as well as spend time learning in the Atrium through the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program. Mass is held three times per week, and classes regularly pray together in our chapel. Weekly adoration and monthly Confession are also offered for our students.
The faith formation of our students is nurtured by our chaplain, and is supported by local parish priests. Though the school cannot offer sacramental preparation since we are not a parish, much formation and learning about the sacraments happens daily at school.
Millennial Catholics who attended Catholic schools are seven times more likely to attend weekly Mass than millennial adults who attended public schools (Gray, 2014).
Men who have attended a Catholic secondary school are more than six times as likely to consider a vocation to the priesthood (NRVC, 2013).
Women who have attended a Catholic primary school are three times as likely to consider being a religious sister (NRVC, 2013).
A home for great beginnings.
