Royalmont Academy: A Unique Approach to Catholic Education

When selecting a private school for your child, the decision can be overwhelming. Families seeking a Catholic school want more than just academic excellence—they want a place where their child will grow in faith, character, and leadership. At Royalmont Academy, a Regnum Christi school, we offer something different: an education that provides integral formation—focusing on the intellectual, human, spiritual, and apostolic growth of each student. Our intentional approach ensures that students are not only prepared for success in the modern world but are also formed into compassionate, resilient, and faith-filled individuals.

Intellectual Formation: Academically Rigorous, Faithfully Rooted

Choosing the right school often starts with academics, and at Royalmont Academy, our curriculum is designed to challenge students from PreK through high school. Our academic program emphasizes critical 21st-century skills while remaining deeply rooted in the Catholic intellectual tradition. Unlike other private schools, our curriculum not only meets Archdiocese and State of Ohio standards but also incorporates the higher standards of Regnum Christi education.

Through a classically informed curriculum, students engage with the great thinkers of history, deepening their understanding of truth, faith, and reason. More importantly, students apply their critical thinking skills to modern-day issues and topics, utilizing technology responsibly. This balance of classical education and real-world application helps them become discerning individuals who can analyze and respond to contemporary challenges in a thoughtful, faith-filled way.

Human Formation: Fostering Emotional and Social Growth

At Royalmont, we believe in forming the whole person, which is why human formation is an integral part of our approach. We emphasize self-management, resilience, empathy, and teamwork. By offering project-based work, like our famous Wax Museum and Walk Through History projects, along with public speaking opportunities and real-world experiences, we give students the tools they need to grow into independent, confident individuals. We aim to ensure that Royalmont students not only succeed academically but also become well-rounded leaders prepared to navigate life’s challenges.

Spiritual Formation: A Deep, Lived Faith

As a Catholic school, spiritual development is at the core of everything we do. At Royalmont Academy, we offer daily Mass celebrated by our full-time priest, weekly all-school Masses, regular confession, and First Friday adoration and benediction. In addition, we provide spiritual mentorship to students. Boys receive guidance from our priest, while our full-time campus minister mentors our girls. From praying together multiple times a day to participating in retreats and celebrating feast days, students are immersed in a vibrant spiritual life that deepens their connection to God and their faith.

Apostolic Formation: Disciples of Christ in Action

What truly sets Royalmont apart from other Catholic schools is our focus on apostolic formation. We don’t just raise students who know their faith; we raise students who actively live it. From PreK through 12th grade, our students are taught to serve and evangelize, sharing their faith with others. The journey culminates in a pilgrimage, chosen by our senior class, to a global destination that emphasizes the universality of the Catholic Church and reinforces the call to missionary discipleship.

A Global Community with Regnum Christi

Royalmont Academy is proud to be part of the global network of Regnum Christi schools. This connection allows our students to benefit from a wide range of resources and collaboration with other Catholic schools worldwide, helping to reinforce their academic, spiritual, and personal growth. This unique global perspective is unmatched by other private schools, further enhancing the rich, multifaceted experience we provide.
