Established in 2000, Holy Family Academy is a private, Catholic school teaching grades 7-12 in the classical tradition. HFA educates students to fulfill their fundamental vocation: to be saints who live as beloved sons and daughters of God. Formal education in the Catholic Faith aims specifically at personal union with God: At the heart of catechesis we find, in essence, a Person, the Person of Jesus of Nazareth…. The definitive aim of catechesis is to put people not only in touch but in communion, in intimacy, with Jesus Christ. (Catechesi Tradendae, 5) The ultimate educational goal at HFA is no less than union with God lived imperfectly in this world and perfectly in the next.
