our mission
our mission and philosophy

The Lyceum has as its mission nothing less than the formation of a liberally educated Catholic lady or gentleman. Broadly stated, The Lyceum aims to have graduates who, having been formed by Catholic western civilization, then become bearers and guardians of a culture of life. Liberal education is that education in which students are challenged with all that is best in the history of human thought. By reading the original works of the greatest thinkers, participating in the greatest art and music, and living a life which is informed by the Catholic faith, Lyceum students assimilate and perpetuate the civilization of truth and love.

Our Mission is ambitious, but certainly not impossible. We hope to integrate in our students the life of faith, reason, and will, ordered emotions, sound imagination, excellent manners and receptivity to goodness, truth and beauty, rooted in the best of Western Civilization as found in original sources and perfected by Revelation. This may seem a difficult mission to achieve in six years at a day school, but our program depends upon and builds on the work of parents as the primary educators of their children and cooperates with the grace of God, in Whom nothing is impossible.
