We are a family centered school community, which respects the God-given dignity of every person and celebrates the development of Gospel faith and identity through sacrament and service.
Providence Academy is an independent, private, classical academy in the Roman Catholic tradition which assists parents from pre-school through 12th grade in developing their children to do God's will by: (1) teaching students how to reason through a classical curriculum offered in fidelity to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church; (2) forming students in the virtues; and (3) inculcating students in wisdom through an understanding of truth, beauty and goodness.
Thus, the goal of Providence Academy, expressed in its motto Fiat Voluntas Tua ("Thy will be done!"), is to maximize the ability and desire of each of its students to love and serve God in all future endeavors, whether in higher academics, religious life, or any other vocation.
Through its mission, Providence Academy enhances and extends the work of the family for God's glory and the renewal of society.
