DJ Leary learned lessons in leadership while he was at Saint Patrick Academy. With our one-on-one approach, he realized an aptitude for mathematics and went on to sweep the high school awards at New Hampton Boarding School. Because he excelled as both a student and a citizen, DJ had his choice among several top engineering colleges. He’s now at Worcester Polytechnic Institute dreaming about designing automobiles.

Gracie believes that Saint Patrick Academy has given her a foundation she can count on. She puts the lessons and values she learned with us (like kindness and caring) to work every day at Middlebury College where she plays lacrosse and envisions a role in the field of neuroscience.

Our now 4-year-old son began the Pre-K3 program this past fall at Saint Patrick Academy. Not only have his teachers been exemplary, but we have been welcomed with the utmost kindness from all the SPA faculty and staff with whom we have come in contact. It warms our hearts knowing that our child is encouraged, supported and is being taught how to live a virtuous life all while having a blast with his newfound friends. We cannot wait for him to continue to grow in this wonderful community!

This warms my heart. The team wanted [my son] to make a basket last night and it was so special... They kept passing him the ball and he finally made one! The team was so excited for him. I just love everything about sports at SPA. The sportsmanship is beyond remarkable.

I cannot say enough great things about Saint Patrick Academy! My husband and I feel incredibly grateful every day that we found this school for both of our children. Our children have thrived academically and socially. The teachers, administrators, academics and facilities are amazing!
