"Thy whole creation ceaseth not, nor is silent in Thy praises... that so our souls may from their weariness arise towards Thee, leaning on those things which Thou hast created, and passing on to Thyself, who madest them wonderfully; and there is refreshment and true strength. "- St. Augustine of Hippo, Confessions Ch V

Reflection on Catholic Education 

The duty of Catholic education is, in part, to elicit from and reinforce in the child their innate, God-given sense of wonder. This fundamentally human sense is how we, as mere creatures, can come to appreciate how all knowable things are from God, to God, and for God. As a young man, I found God after a nominally Catholic youth by way of feeding and reflecting on this innate wonder. I am pleased to be a part of Mount Royal Academy where, God willing, I may aid other souls in like manner. 

Mr. Byron Hamilton has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration and Graphic Design from California State University, Fresno. Beyond college, his art background includes a term of study in the form of a traditional atelier school, with industry professionals from Imaginism Studios acting as Master to his Apprentice. His portfolio content ranges from computer games to children's books. Mr. Hamilton has taught faith formation courses in Florida and served in RCIA and other ministries in his homeland of Houston, Texas. Before his current position at Mount Royal Academy, he was employed there as substitute teacher, admissions/marketing assistant, and humanities teacher. Mr. Hamilton and his wife reside in Newport with their daughter, and are parishioners of St. Patrick's Parish.
