What Sets Royalmont Academy Apart?

Choosing the right school for your child is a major decision. For families seeking the best private Catholic schools in Cincinnati, Royalmont Academy offers a blend of academic excellence, faith formation, and personal attention that sets it apart.

We are more than just a school—we’re a mission-driven community. We form strong Christian leaders through our holistic, Regnum Christi approach.

“Royalmont does not simply prepare your children for worldly success, rather it equips them to fulfill God’s Will… Your children are not made for this world, they are made for sainthood.”
— Therese, Senior

Faith at the Center of One of the Best Private Catholic Schools in Cincinnati

As a Regnum Christi school, Royalmont emphasizes the four pillars of integral formation: intellectual, human, spiritual, and apostolic. Students attend weekly Mass, participate in adoration and confession, and grow through intentional mentorship.

“Royalmont is unique from other schools in many ways. Most notably—their fervor in teaching the faith and forming us into Christian leaders for the world.”
— Lillian, Junior

“My favorite thing about Royalmont is having Rosary in the afternoon. This is extra time with God.”
— Micah, Elementary Student

We don’t just talk about faith—we live it. The sacraments are part of our weekly rhythm, shaping hearts and minds for life.

Academics that Inspire and Challenge

Royalmont’s curriculum is classically informed and rooted in the Catholic Intellectual Tradition. Students explore rich literature, hands-on science, and theology that shapes both heart and intellect.

“Math isn’t supposed to be fun, but here it is fun because they make games with it… I wish I could go to school on Saturday and Sunday!”
— Saanvi, New Student

“The teachers are kind and helpful… They show their faith by helping students work through their problems, giving students the guidance and love they need.”
— Lillian, Junior

Our small class sizes—22 max in K–3, 24 max in 4–8—ensure that students get the personal attention they need to succeed.

A Safe, Virtue-Based Environment

At Royalmont, we form virtuous leaders. We encourage kindness, responsibility, and discipline through daily habits and community culture.

“Royalmont encourages students to be respectful to one another and to the teachers. The Knights of the Altar program teaches us to be respectful altar servers while also allowing us to participate in fun activities.”
— Luke, Middle School

“Royalmont doesn’t just teach subjects like ELA, science, or social studies; it also teaches many important virtues… Just being at Royalmont brings me so much joy!”
— Gemma, Elementary Student

Students grow into confident leaders who understand their God-given dignity and the value of each person.

Opportunities Beyond the Classroom

Growth at Royalmont extends beyond textbooks. We create moments where students encounter God and one another in meaningful ways.

“My friendship with God has changed so much from all my experiences at Royalmont. The trips to Camp River Ridge, the ski trip—everything has helped change my relationship with God for the better.”
— Brody, Middle School

Retreats, service projects, apostolic work, and pilgrimages—such as the 7th and 8th grade trip to Maria Stein—help students grow in both faith and character.
