Under the leadership of the Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth, Academy
of Saint Aloysius, a Catholic institution, has instilled high moral values
in its young women for over 135 years.
They believe that the education of each student requires the development of
a social awareness of local, national and global needs, as well as
recognition of each one's responsibilities as part of these communities.
This belief helps to foster active citizenship that will continue on through
life.
The Academy provides experiences that serve to nurture the faith and
religious beliefs of all of its students. Throughout the year, all students
and faculty gather together to celebrate liturgies and prayer services. Each
grade level participates in a retreat. Social awareness is fostered through
various outreach projects to the community and through volunteer service.
All students are invited to actively participate in the building of the
faith community that is the Academy of Saint Aloysius. They celebrate the
gift of cultural diversity, and the value of different religious beliefs.
In summary, their young women are aware of the plight of the poor and the
suffering of the sick, oppressed and lonely. With that knowledge, they enter
the world with sensitivity to the needs of our global community.
