Holy Spirit Prep is a classical, Catholic school serving students Pre-K through 12th grade. Our curriculum combines the best of classical pedagogical traditions in a joyful, engaging, rigorous, and thoroughly Catholic environment faithful to the Magisterium of the Church. Along with our fine arts and robust athletics program, we seek to enkindle in students the desire to pursue excellence in every endeavor they undertake and provide them with all the tools necessary to lead successful, rewarding lives in a manner consistent with the sublime end for which they have been created: eternal life with God.

Holy Spirit Preparatory School is an independent, Catholic college preparatory school serving Preschool-12th grade students with a profound educational vision. Our curriculum combines the best of classical pedagogical traditions in a joyful, engaging, and thoroughly Catholic environment. This curriculum includes STEM-based coursework, fine and performing arts, and a very active athletic program. Through these means, we seek to enkindle in students the desire to pursue excellence in every endeavor they undertake and provide them with all the tools necessary to lead successful, rewarding lives in a manner consistent with the sublime end for which they have been created: eternal life with God.

This vision deeply informs our curriculum and animates our efforts to help students grow in virtue and to know and love truth, goodness, and beauty, the three divine attributes upon which all authentically classical, Catholic education is grounded. “A saint,” our beloved late Pope Benedict XVI observed, “is one who is so captivated by God’s perfect truth and beauty as to be progressively transformed by it.” We strive to provide a learning environment that advances this noble aspiration, so our students are fully prepared to go into the world firm in faith, joyful in hope, and active in charity.

Our educational competitors are few, and for many reasons including:

  • The freedom to design our own rigorous curriculum rather than having it mandated by other educational offices or organizations.
  • The advantage of teaching and discussing the classical literature from an explicitly
    Catholic perspective rather than a purely secular one.
  • The distinction of a vibrant fine arts program which includes concert and jazz bands, chamber ensembles, and four choirs including a Schola Cantorum (sacred music choir).
  • The blessing of having Priest Chaplains on both campuses to provide sacramental and devotional opportunities for students on a daily basis.

There are other exciting aspects of our academic and formative programming that could be mentioned, and I encourage you to discover them yourselves as you review our website. Do not hesitate to contact us with your questions, and please schedule a time to visit us. We would love to hear from you!
