Academics

• It is foundational and with great intentionality that OLGSA directs all its aims at preparing an educational program and environment that meets the needs for proper dignity, growth, and maturity of the whole person; in its curriculum, extracurriculars, and the well prepared environment.

• A whole and wholesome education, by participating in daily Mass, following the Liturgical feasts and seasons and saints of our Holy Faith, in and out of the classroom. Properly celebrating and educating about Catholic Holidays like All Hallows Eve, St. Valentine’s, St. Patrick’s, Easter, Christmas, and others which secular culture misrepresents.

• Offering activities that can challenge and foster opportunities for camaraderie, sportsmanship, and healthy competition.

• Considered in its historical origin, the school is by its very nature an institution subsidiary and complementary to the family and to the Church. It follows logically and necessarily that it must not be in opposition to, but in positive accord with those other two elements, and form with them a perfect moral union, constituting one sanctuary of education, as it were, with the family and the Church. (Divini Illius Magistri 77)

• In (Divini Illius Magistri 78) Pope Pius XI, expressed for a school organization to be a fit place for Catholic students it must not just give some religious instruction but that it is necessary that all the teaching and the whole organization of the school, its teachers, syllabus, and text-books in every branch, be regulated by the Christian spirit…so that Religion may be in truth the crown of the youth’s entire training in every grade including higher institutions of learning as well. 

The school fulfills its mission under the heavenly patronage of Our Lady of Good Success. For these times she presented the Christ Child on the Cross of the Pinchincha. This is the powerful message of Our Lord as an adolescent embracing the Cross in His love for mankind; and as an example for those who would follow in His footsteps. This modern age has been persuading children to believe that we are made for pleasure, when we are made for more. Following Christ crucified encourages young people to learn the value of sacrificing oneself for greater causes, to embrace the Crosses of life, and to renounce the pleasures of vanities, in preparation for eternity. Our Lady of Good Success Academy relies on the guidance of the Holy Spirit to help prepare the path of the children of today; as they walk through this life with Christ and Our Lady into their eternal reward with God the Father.
