The Family of Schools unites local Catholic elementary schools and our Catholic high school to strengthen faith, grow enrollment, and celebrate a lifelong path of Catholic education.
The Ohio Educational Choice (EdChoice) Scholarship Program gives students across the state the opportunity to attend participating private schools at little to no cost, regardless of where they live. Making catholic education truly affordable for all.
At any of our Family of Schools, all are truly welcome. While our foundation is rooted in the Catholic faith, you do not have to be Catholic to be a valued and active member of our community. We embrace students and families from all backgrounds, united by a shared commitment to academic excellence, strong character, service to others, and mutual respect. Our faith shapes our mission, but our doors are open to everyone seeking a supportive, values-driven environment where each student is known, challenged, and encouraged to grow.

The learning environment of a classical Catholic education structurally and practically intends the integral formation of the whole human person–body, mind, and spirit in the dignity of being created in the image and likeness of God. It seeks to understand objective reality and to recognize the Good, True and Beautiful as revelations of God’s creation which ultimately allows our students to seamlessly weave faith, life and culture as God himself envisioned. We partner with parents to form our students into morally upright critical thinkers who are prepared to be leaders of tomorrow.
