We are among the nation’s highest-performing schools as a Blue Ribbon school. Blue Ribbon awardees foster a challenging curriculum in a safe and welcoming environment while closing the achievement gap among all of our students. St. Cecelia Catholic School has won this prestigious award in both 2010 and 2020. The national award is the highest honor a school can receive from the Department of Education.

A challenging curriculum in middle school will prepare your child for more advanced high school classes, which, in turn gets your son or daughter ready for college. High academic achievement can lead to a wider range of college opportunities as well as more financial aid.

Student-teacher ratios are smaller in private schools. Your middle school student will get more individualized attention throughout each class as one lesson builds on the next, leading to higher achievement.

We became an International Baccalaureate World School in 2014. IB World Schools commit to an educational philosophy that develops inquiring, knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate young people. The MYP aims to develop active learners and internationally minded young people who can empathize with others and live lives of purpose and meaning.

Students are given a sound spiritual foundation preparing them for life. The value of Catholic school is that students have a place to grow and thrive as a whole person. A Catholic school community ensures that your child will be taught the same values that they learn at home – have reverence for every person, treat others as you would want to be treated, and live as Jesus did to help those in need.
