St. Jerome Academy 

SJA's distinctive approach to technology, grounded in Christian anthropology, was highlighted in a recent article published by Catholic News Agency. The fact that SJA is sought after for comment on issues such as cell phones in classrooms is a testament to our curriculum and, even more importantly, to the culture that our faculty have nurtured since we adopted the Education Plan of St. Jerome Academy.

Associate Superintendent Chris Buchleitner visited Mrs. Collaran's Classroom and interacted with Students during the first week of School at SJA.

"Thank you for organizing and planning this wonderful reunion.  We all had such a good time seeing each other after all these years.  St Jerome School holds such a special place in our hearts." ~ Carolyn Stavely Mitchell On May 18, 2024, St. Jerome Academy warmly welcomed fifteen alumni and their spouses from the class of 1964 to celebrate their 60th-anniversary reunion. The event was a joyous occasion filled with nostalgia and heartfelt reconnections.

Look around and notice all the schools focused on just math and reading, boasting acronyms and buzzwords, or talking about acceptance rates and scholarship money. Those things are fine and good, but why do we open our doors each morning? Plato says that the end or purpose of education is cultivating virtue to form a good person. We could easily add on the capacity to know and love the truth, to act in freedom, to reason, to discipline, and to train healthy desires. To develop our memory and our attention. By developing what is most human, we surrender our will to His. Or as St. Bernadette of Soubirous said, “I must become a saint. My Jesus expects it.”
