Meet Our Staff
Holy Family Academy students are taught by Catholic teachers committed to assisting students on their path to holiness and training them to reach their full academic potential.
- Our full-time staff members are active, practicing, faith-filled Catholics dedicated to growing in personal holiness through prayer, frequent reception of the Sacraments and sacrificial love.
- All teachers take the Oath of Fidelity to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church and make an annual vow to teach in accordance with the Catholic Church.
- Over 80% of our teachers have Masters Degrees in Education, Catholic Studies, Philosophy or Theology from Universities such as St. Thomas, Steubenville, Saint Mary’s and Dallas.
- Holy Family Academy teachers realize that teaching in a Catholic school is a vocation and a mission for the greater good of the Church and that they have been called to assist children on their path to holiness.
