St. Rosalia Academy offers a strong traditional curriculum. In the "Continuous Growth Program" of the Diocese of Pittsburgh students advance through a defined curriculum according to their individual needs and abilities.
In addition to meeting all the requirements of the Pennsylvania Department of Education, the curriculum gives special attention to the integration of Gospel values.
Curriculum guidelines for all subject areas are utilized by the Catholic elementary schools and provided through the Department for Catholic Schools.
The guidelines endeavor to give continuity to the teaching/learning process, and are geared to meet the individual needs of students and to guide the teaching/learning process.
St. Rosalia Academy, a Catholic co-educational institution, seeks to provide an atmosphere in which each student's faith may become living, conscious, and active through the light of instruction, thus enabling the student to become aware of his/her unique value as an individual.
