Activities Philosophy
Holy Spirit Academy is committed to forming each student as a whole person, body and soul. “The body is, in its own right, God’s masterpiece in the order of visible creation” (Sporting Ideal, Pius XII). To this end, we prompt excellence through an understanding of the dignity and harmony of the body. Students learn the value of discipline, teamwork, and perseverance while developing leadership skills, integrity, and respect through participation in extracurriculars. Sports and the arts are not an end in themselves, they “…awaken a sense of order, and form man in self-examination and mastery of self, in despising danger, without either boasting or cowardice.” (Sporting Ideal, Pius XII). To this end, Holy Spirit Academy prompts participation in extracurricular activities for the cultivation of excellence in each person.
