Since Seton Study School is a Catholic school recognized by the Diocese of Arlington, every effort is made to integrate the faith into the curriculum.
For example, our Spanish courses have links to the Catechism of the Catholic Church in Spanish.
There are also cultural links to many Spanish cathedrals. Take a virtual tour of Catholic France; visit Notre Dame and the home of Saint Therese of Lisieux.
