The New Strategic Plan for St. Edmund's Academy

There’s only one child like yours.
And that’s why for Preschoolers
through 8th Graders, there’s only
one St. Edmund’s Academy.

Since our founding in 1947, we’ve known that children thrive in Core Values-aligned communities dedicated to cultivating their empathy, resilience, and sense of service. Our commitment to enduring academic skills and timeless character education sets us apart.

for Preschool through 8th Graders focused on foundations in the core academic disciplines, timeless habits for personal success, and real-world learning experiences for broader global awareness in the context of local action.

And this program never gets old.

priority two

There’s only one community

that focuses on creating a culture of belonging through a set of time-honored Core Values designed to help children see and feel their unique importance and essential contribution to our collective thriving.

Since 1947, we’ve been all in.
