Welcome to the Academy
Villa Madonna Academy (Villa) is a private, Catholic school for boys and girls in grades PreK-12 founded in 1904 by the Benedictine Sisters of St. Walburg Monastery. The academic model is divided into three schools: the high school which combines junior high (grades 7-8) with the high school (grades 9-12), enabling students to accelerate academically but graduate with their class, elementary school (grades K-6), featuring differentiated instruction with small class sizes, and the Montessori School, (ages 3-6), providing a learning environment in which children are encouraged to develop an awareness of self and respect for the community and to honor their spirituality.
At the Academy, grades PreK-12, personalized classes shape skillful learners and independent thinkers from pre-kindergarten through high school, where 100 percent of our graduates attend college with an average of 98 percent earning scholarships.
