FAITH DEVELOPMENT:
Our Theology Department seeks to both catechize and evangelize our students in order to foster within them a life of Christ-like virtue and deep knowledge of the truths of the faith. We offer weekly mass, attend an all-school mass once a month, and the boys have several retreat and community service opportunities, including Kairos retreat twice a year. We strive to foster an environment of faith that produces reciprocal respect among all persons in the community and to establish an atmosphere in which community members may openly bear witness to the Gospel values.
UNIQUE ACADEMIC OFFERINGS:
17 AP, 21 Honors Classes, and dual Enrollment opportunities with the University of Detroit Mercy allow our students to challenge themselves at a high level.
