Guardian Angel Elementary School

10919 Norris Ave, Pacoima, CA, 91331-0913
Welcome to Guardian Angel School provide strong religious education and formation, a school that would provide an atmosphere where students can practice their faith, and thus grow into faithful members of the Church. In order to achieve that objective, our students have the opportunity to live the sacraments, to learn about their faith and the reasons behind their beliefs. Guardian Angel seeks to provide our students with a strong intellectual formation. For that reason, we are adapting a classical methodology of teaching where the instruction adapts to the way students learn: the Grammatical, Logical and Rhetorical stages. In the Grammatical stage, students who are in the earlier stages of their intellectual development have a greater facility to memorize and to imitate, and therefore we put a special emphasis on memorizing fine examples of poetry, catechism questions, the reading of excellent examples of literature for them to imitate.
