This week, I am delighted to share another student’s work published in the Star of Bethlehem. Peter Hogan has been working on his skill with calligraphy for a long time, and his subject matter is almost always faith based. This particular piece displays a passage from the Gospel of Luke 23:39-43. I hope others can appreciate this as much as I have. We might see some more work from Peter in the future. </p> <p>Mr. Ambrose Bean, Humanities Teacher</p> <p>The text reads:</p> <p><em>And one of the malefactors which were hang...</em></p></p></p>

Each year, this is an opportunity for us to celebrate and acknowledge the achievements of a small group of students who are joining the chapter at our school. I always think it is worth noting that academic excellence accounts for only one of the four NHS pillars. We also want to see our students striving to demonstrate strong character, service, and leadership skills. We do not want them to possess mere skill; we want them to use their skills for the benefit of others and the community as a whole. </p> <p dir="ltr">This perspective...</p></p>

The liberal arts curriculum offered by Mount Royal Academy is classical in that it has been time tested over millennia. Rather than utility, this education seeks to impart a knowledge of and love for truth for its own sake. Having this focus allows one to attain the highest good - that which is good, true, and beautiful in its very self.

To receive Honor Roll recognition, eligible students must achieve straight A’s for the Headmaster’s List, no less than a B+ for the High Honors List, or no less than a B for the Honors List. In total, fifty-seven students received academic awards.

"Faith asks that its object be understood with the help of reason; and at the summit of its searching, reason acknowledges that it cannot do without what faith presents."

Thirty-six students earned a position on the Headmaster’s List with a 4.0 average for the fourth quarter. The school’s curriculum is based on the classical education model that seeks to impart knowledge grounded in the truth, goodness, and beauty of creation. It continues to maintain a surging enrollment in the twenty-fifth year of operation.
