Frassati Catholic Academy
Frassati Catholic Academy is in its eighth year as a Catholic classical school. The school offers a beautiful education in truth, goodness and beauty through a Catholic, classical methodology. The Catholic faith is truly at the center of all they do! Students attend mass multiple times a week and have weekly opportunities for Confession and Adoration. The school’s enrollment grew to 385 students in grades preschool through 8th grade, up from 368 students last year. An additional sixth-grade class has been added for the 2024-2025 school year, and additional seventh and eighth-grade classes will be added over the next two years. The theme for the year is, “Do the next right thing in faith, with excellence, and for the glory of God!”
Last year also brought several new blessings, including the completion of our new HVAC system, the replacement of the center section of our roof, and the resealing and painting of our parking lot. Thanks to a grant, FCA also purchased new equipment for the physical education program. Through additional grants, the school hopes and prays to be able to continue the beautification of the chapel as they work on converting it from a cafeteria space to a beautiful chapel. Finally, FCA has instituted a brand-new Department of Student Supports that is allowing the school to better serve students who have different needs in order to help Frassati be inclusive for all who desire an authentic Catholic education.
The faculty and staff have worked hard to clearly define classical education at Frassati Catholic Academy and develop a plan for living in community that will bring them together through a shared Christian mission. FCA has also been planning many community events this year, such as the Fox Trot Fun Run and our All Saints Day Eucharistic Procession. Frassati looks forward to continuing its growth as a community of faith!
