Why start a Catholic hybrid academy?  Because we Catholic families at St. Catherine's in Columbia want to raise saints!

Many may ask what value community-learning adds to their own homeschool?  A Catholic family -- by definition -- is not island.  The benefits of coming together to school in community one, two or three days a week are INVALUABLE and MANY.  Coming together to learn and grow in a community can provide like-minded parents with the support, enrichment and faith that a solo homeschooled family may never enjoy.
