St. John Bosco Schools offers students a classical, Catholic curriculum. Two key principles of our curriculum were articulated by St. Thomas Aquinas:
- "Grace builds upon nature."
- "Nothing is in the intellect that is not first in the senses."
Holiness is often mistakenly identified exclusively with frequent participation in the Sacraments and other devotions consistent with the teachings of the Catholic Church. While such norms of piety are an essential component of a holy life, it is also true that our whole person is a gift from God, and that the full development of our human potential is pleasing to Him. St. John Bosco Schools seeks to aid students in their path to holiness by guiding the development of their learning faculties to maturity.
The essence of a classical curriculum is not found in the age of the texts used, but rather in the timelessness of the education attained. Our curriculum is classical in the sense that it is ordered to a spiritual, moral, intellectual, social and physical development of children that will enable them to grow into independent, lifelong learners. It provides formation, not merely information.
