Academic Innovation
Academic Innovation
Lumen Christi Academies is undertaking a comprehensive renewal of academic programs to meet the highest standards of 21st-century education. Blended learning strategies incorporate state of the art software, which allows students to learn at their own pace and level. By implementing small group instruction and individual practice, teachers can quickly measure learning performance and better focus their efforts on each child. STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) courses are featured prominently in a renewed the school’s curriculum.
Like all LCA schools, St. Paul prioritizes continuous improvement and professional development for our teachers and principals. Each teaching professional will have a personal plan to be executed on an annual basis. Improvements will come in the form of more excellent content knowledge, new teaching techniques, higher credentials, and broader expertise across disciplines and grade-level capabilities.

St. Paul is a culturally diverse Catholic community, offering a faith-based program dedicated to educating the whole child. Deeply anchored in a loving, safe, and inclusive environment, every LCA school is dedicated to teaching a rigorous, 21st-century curriculum. The curriculum is also supplemented with an enriching program of social and emotional learning, which enables each child to listen, share, collaborate, and communicate with their fellow classmates. The Christ Light is alive because of the mutual respect, kindness, and appreciation practiced in every classroom at St. Paul.
Catholic Identity
Catholic Identity
All LCA schools, some dating back to the 19th century, have long been offering a faith-based learning environment. Catholic faith principles like love, charity, and hope form the foundation for every LCA school. St. Paul continues to be a bastion of the Catholic faith, values, and teaching. With such special character, St. Paul has been deeply valued in its surrounding community since the 1950s.

St. Paul continues to expand its curriculum, which already includes art, music, theatre, physical education, and Spanish. Joint programs with other Lumen Christi Academies will leverage the strengths of the network to offer many new academic programs and positive social experiences for our young students. Moreover, St. Paul will continue to expand psychological counseling services to students, as well as holistically accommodate students with special needs.
Mission Statement
The Lumen Christi Academies offer a faith-based environment that reflects the diversity of our communities and ignites students to be the light of Christ in the world. We attract, support and holistically form students, families and teachers. We are building a firm financial foundation to innovate our programs and facilities to ensure equitable access to excellence for all.
