“You can get all A’s,” the American writer Walker Percy once remarked, “and still fail life.” Simply put, a classical education is the kind of education you get if you think that statement true. At Drexel, education is both classical and Catholic, and it is centered around cultivating wisdom and virtue in the soul of each student so that they would know and love Christ and his Church. 

Beginning with daily Mass and extending through the seven liberal arts, Drexel High School seeks to prepare students for their vocations, help them grow their minds and hearts in faith, hope, and charity, and aid them in their pursuit of sainthood, that each student may, as St. Katherine Drexel wrote, “offer [themselves] on the altar, joined to Christ.” 

Deus te benedicat!
