A culture of life well-lived

Education through adventure

 

Outdoors-oriented

"Green time" is vital for kids (and adults!) to live happy, healthy, holy lives. We are committed to giving students opportunities to engage with God's creation as part of our core curriculum, and to create opportunities for outdoorsmanship, adventure, and wonder. As a first step, we intend to build and nurture an on-campus garden. The school day is filled with ample opportunity for students to move, stretch, wiggle and play.

 

Living the liturgical year

In her wisdom, the Church knows that humans need both structure and change. She has developed a rich liturgical rhythm that, over millennia, has been imbued with small-t-traditions that form a gentle and attractive introduction to the Christian life. Our school calendar revolves around this ebb and flow of preparation, feasting and penitence.

Mass & Adoration

Christendom students have access to a rich sacramental life. In the future, we intend every school day to begin with daily Mass, but presently we are required to work around parish schedules. Students attend Adoration weekly and Confession as frequently as priest and parish schedules allow. The culture at Christendom Academy is designed to invite ascent in virtue and holiness in an atmosphere of freedom.

 

Field trips

Students have special interactions when they travel together and experience the world. When we plan field trips, we seek to develop in every student a spirit of adventure towards new opportunities, to promote a deeper sense of friendship among the students by creating shared experiences, and to provide unique opportunities for mentoring between students and teachers.
