Values & Traditions

The administration, faculty and staff of Nazareth Academy High School, is committed to upholding our school’s values.

• Each student is a valued individual with unique gifts and passions.
• Students learn in different ways, promoting a variety of instructional practices and learning activities to address these differences.
• Administrators, faculty and staff share the responsibility with students and parents for supporting the mission of the school.
• Challenging expectations inspire the individual student to achieve high personal and academic goals.

The environment at Nazareth Academy High School is rich in Catholic tradition and values. Our students begin each day with daily prayer and they are encouraged to share their special intentions with their classmates. Our entire school community gathers together in our chapel to celebrate liturgical masses and prayer services. Opportunities abound for students to practice their faith by joining the Liturgy Team and Choir Connection. Students can also participate in school Masses as altar servers, lectors and liturgical dancers.

The faculty and staff inspire our students to live their faith and develop their spirituality on a daily basis. This begins with the eight course theology program and is reinforced through class retreats, social awareness clubs and community service. Qualities such as respect, love and acceptance permeate the student’s educational experiences as we shape Catholic girls into Catholic women.
