Gregory the Great Academy is a boarding school for boys in grades 9 through 12. We offer a Liberal Arts education in the Catholic tradition by which a young man can cultivate virtue, deepen his faith, and sharpen his intellect.

A Private Boys’ Boarding School in the Catholic Tradition
Our mission is to form whole and happy men through adventurous encounters with the good, true, and beautiful, bringing our students into meaningful contact with each other and the things of earth and heaven.

At our school, everyone does everything. Athletes sing in the choir, scholars ride unicycles, city kids clean pig pens, country kids learn to tie a Windsor knot.

The day opens with the singing of Lauds. After breakfast and morning chores, the boys devote themselves to classes. Later in the morning the students attend Holy Mass, followed by lunch, classes, sports, study hall, and Compline.

Young men have a strong desire to test their boundaries. They long to enter the world of men, but they are required to go to school. At a boarding school, they can begin that journey.

Our course of studies is demanding, but we wish for good hearts as much as good minds. Students who are willing to work with good spirit and diligence will grow in wisdom through wonder.

Side by side with what we give students is what we refuse to give them, or rather, our firm belief that in order to make mental and physical room for the good, we provide a retreat from the distractions of technology.
