School Notes

Padre Pio Academy is a private, non-tax supported, independent school founded with the help of God's grace by Catholics loyal to the Magisterium of the Church.
The mission of the school is to transmit the Catholic Faith to elementary school children within the context of a rigorous academic program.
The school integrates an orthodox Catholic religious formation program that includes daily prayer, devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and regular celebration of the sacraments.
In imitation of our saintly patron, Padre Pio Academy is committed to a pious and sober approach to daily life.
We offer our students a classical curriculum built on the great works of Western Civilization.
The mission of Padre Pio Academy is to give our children the gift of our Catholic Faith. Padre Pio Academy seeks to instill in its pupils the inflamed love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ that will burn throughout their lives, undimmed by the winds of this world.

Words cannot wholly convey the life changing impact the teachers and staff of Padre Pio Academy had on the life of my daughter. Their love and support exemplified Christ''s love for His church - a life of sacrifice and a call to follow Him and not the world . The small to moderate class sizes allowed for personal attention as well as the formation of a Christ-centered community in which my daughter had the opportunity to thrive in. God tells us in the Holy Scriptures that man looks at the outward appearance but God looks at the heart 1 Samuel 16:7. Thank you teachers and staff. May the children that pass through your doors continue to be transformed into the faithful servants of Jesus Christ for a world that desperately needs it as you continue to faithfully serve the LORD.

Padre Pio Academy is an amazing school in the Lakewood, Ohio area. It''s been around fro over 20+ years and it has established itself as a leader in classical Catholic curriculum. One element that is very strong is the theatre program. The shows the school put on are incredible and a must see! I''m so happy to be a part of this amazing organization!

PPA is a wonderful school with a very tight knit community. I''m impressed at the curriculum and the small class sizes where my children get one on one attention. I love their theater program. Their productions are always top notch and are something to look forward to every spring. I can''t recommend this school enough!
