House System & Advisory Program

The House System creates smaller communities within the school to encourage friendships, promote school spirit, develop student leadership, and foster responsibility, accountability, and healthy competition.

The houses hold the name of a pope whose example of openness, faith, and service to others inspires us to live a Christ-centered life. Each house includes a balanced mix of 6th-12th graders. 

A spirited, close community is formed. Students build meaningful, healthy relationships with one another, faculty, staff, and coaches, develop leadership skills, and learn how to communicate ideas and work as a team.

The Advisory System creates small student groups that provide a welcoming, more personal environment to form peer friendships and a constant connection with a familiar teacher.

Advisors are assigned to small groups of students through the House System and remain with that group from 6th grade to graduation. The Advisory meets weekly to communicate school policy and student activities and provides an opportunity grade monitoring.

Students form lasting relationships with their peers and attain an advocate in their Advisor. The Advisor acts as a second set of eyes, helping to monitor student academic progress, peer relationships, and student life matters.
