Students not only learn Catholic values, they live them.
Pius XI High School is called to a mission that is grounded in the love of Christ and the faith of the Catholic Church. In the Pallottine and Franciscan traditions, Pius XI invites students and families from diverse racial, cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds into a community of teachers and learners, of faith and faith-in-action.
As a faith-centered educational community, we nurture each student’s growth in mind, body and spirit. Our intellectually, socially and spiritually stimulating environment encourages students to adopt a way of life that embraces service and challenges them to pursue with equal vigor the goals of academic excellence and faithfulness to Christ.
Our students are given not just the knowledge and skills they will need to prosper in tomorrow’s world, but also the faith and virtues that can make them women and men of outstanding character.
- A four-year theology curriculum, recognized as the Archdiocesan model, consists of 18 different classes.
