My kids love all the things about sja. They have made so many friends and love all the sports and clubs they can be involved with while still continuing their religious education

SJA is a great place to be. Every facet is centered on the Marist mission of the school. The students are challenged every day in their classrooms, as well as motivated to lead or participate in clubs, sports, and events. More importantly, the students have a sense of family spirit, which comes from the faculty, that every student belongs here and to look out for those who have a tough time fitting in or breaking out of their shell.

I am a member of the SJA faculty. My experience has been enjoyable. The teachers and upper-level admins have been very helpful, and many faculty and staff members are a wealth of knowledge. The students are very close to one another and are very involved in things like sports, clubs, NHS and so on.
