St. Ursula Academy is a nurturing Catholic educational community that unleashes the potential of each student to become a woman of faith, integrity and courage committed to building a better world.
As we live our Ursuline mission we:
Provide a rigorous college preparatory program that leads each student to knowledge and self discovery
Ensure that our Catholic mission is the cornerstone of all that we do, while at the same time respecting and welcoming students, parents, faculty and staff of all faiths
Challenge students to be open-minded critical thinkers and lifelong learners who study all aspects of an issue and form opinions based upon inquiry and analysis
Model the joy of learning
Develop young women with self-confidence, high self-esteem and integrity, aware of their own unique gifts and the responsibility they have to use these gifts to benefit themselves and others
Expect students to assume responsibility for their actions while having
the freedom to express themselves and take
appropriate risks
Provide caring support for each student’s academic,emotional, social, psychological and physical needs
Embrace diversity and inclusion as we celebrate the dignity of each person
Guide students to develop empathy for others both less and more fortunate than themselves
Emphasize the importance of balance in their lives as they learn to make prudent choices
Inspire students to develop their personal relationship with God leading them to grow into the persons God created them to be
Provide students opportunities to be involved in activities that are appropriately counter-cultural, and that challenge the status quo.
Ultimately St. Ursula Academy graduates young women who are reflective thinkers, servant leaders, nurturers and prophets.
The Christ Centered Spirit of St. Angela Merici inspires us to
Affirm the Dignity and Gifts of Women,
Inspire students to achieve Academic Excellence,
Develop the Whole Person,
Value the Uniqueness and Gifts of Each Person,
Build Family Spirit in our school,
Celebrate Difference and Diversity, and
Commit ourselves to lives of Christian Service,
