Immediately following the pandemic lockdown, homeschooling peaked.  The number of homeschooled students dropped slightly in 2022-2023, but the overall number of homeschooled students is still higher than pre-pandemic enrollment figures.

Homeschooling was once a niche option for a small group of parents who were interested in educational alternatives.  The COVID-19 pandemic caused many parents to re-thinking traditional education, especially in public schools.

According to the Reason Foundation, parents have turned to homeschooling for several key reasons including their questions over the school environment, fears about safety, concerns about social issues interfering with instruction and the desire to raise their children with a faith-filled education.

While homeschooling can be a valuable educational option for some families, Regina Angelorum Academy, like other Classical Catholic schools, offers advantages which appeal to parents seeking an alternative to public education, but who are still interested in a formal school setting.

If you are a parent researching homeschooling options, consider some potential advantages Regina Angelorum Academy offers.

Wholesome Education

Regina Angelorum Academy provides a wholesome education. We are dedicated to protecting the innocence of childhood.

Professional Teaching Staff

It’s essential for parents to weigh these advantages against their unique family circumstances, preferences, and their child’s individual learning style and needs. What works well for one family may not be the best fit for another. Ultimately, the decision between Regina Angelorum Academy and homeschooling should be based on what aligns best with the child’s educational goals and the resources available to the family.

The Foundation: Truth, Beauty, and Goodness (TBG)

The themes of truth, beauty, and goodness, known as TBG at Regina Angelorum Academy (RAA), are the foundation of a Classical Liberal Arts Education. Students encounter truth, beauty, and goodness through various disciplines including nature studies, poetry recitation, analysis or construction of an argument, and the application of math. Each of these disciplines is woven into the fabric of the RAA school community.

Each trimester, students study the work of one composer and one artist. A new piece of art from the selected artist or composition from the selected composer is introduced to students every two weeks. This year, during first semester, students have been studying the art of Mary Cassatt and the music of Clara and Robert Schumann.

Truth, Beauty, and Goodness: How RAA Students Study Art

Little Girl in a Blue Armchair | Mary Cassatt, 1878

When studying art, a copy of the artwork is provided to students and placed upside down on their desks. Students are guided to turn it over, study it for 2-3 minutes, and then turn it face down again.

Next, students take turns narrating what they remember from the artwork. In addition to the narration, the students in upper grades will comment on the artist’s mood, intent, and the symbolism discovered in the artwork. After two weeks, students refer to the artwork and try to create a copy of the master work. Please see a few examples in the Student Gallery at the end of this post.

Why Narration Matters in Classical Education

Regina Angelorum Academy students spend time regularly practicing the skill of narration to assimilate knowledge. Narration is a classical pedagogical method of telling or writing back what is read, heard, observed, or experienced. It is through the children’s narrations that the ideas and ideals, set forth like a banquet before the children, are digested. We believe the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ to be ever-present as the unique and sacred personality of each child is nourished by this feast.

Truth, Beauty, and Goodness: How RAA Students Study Music

At Regina Angelorum Academy, we believe that music education is fundamental to developing the whole person. Music is a unique language of human expression and points us through beauty and emotion, to reason, and to God Himself.

RAA’s focus on music aligns with the classical Quadrivium which includes music as one of the four core subjects. In the ancient world (along with arithmetic, astronomy, and geometry), music was a means to understanding how the world is ordered and how that order reflects the beauty and rational mind of the Creator. Students are introduced to music as a pathway, enabling them to recognize beauty, and what is true and good.

As children grow into elementary and middle school, these fundamentals are introduced early and are integrated into the classical curriculum based on the era and world events students are studying. Composers and music from the Middle Ages through the Baroque and Classical periods are examples of sacred and secular selections studied to bring the classical curriculum to fruition.

First Trimester Artist: Mary Cassatt, American Painter (1844-1926)

The Child’s Bath, 1893

Mary Cassatt, born in a suburb of Pittsburgh, PA was an Impressionist painter who visited France as a child. She was tutored in art during her childhood and later attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia. After a short time, she departed from the academic approach to art education. She moved to Europe to learn through time with artists including Jean-Leon Gerome and Thomas Couture. Her works were exhibited in the Paris Salon five times.

In 1874, she moved to Paris permanently. Cassatt became friends with Edward Degas, who admired her art, and his art deeply influenced hers. A Japanese exhibition later influenced her, and her artwork and style shifted. While she was prolific at drawing, she did not hesitate to explore using pastels.

Cassatt spent the majority of her life with a group of artists in and around Paris. She painted contemporary women of the era with a special interest in painting women as caretakers of their children.

First Trimester Musicians: Clara (Wieck) Schumann (1819-1896) and Robert Schumann (1810-1856)

Clara and Robert Schumann | Source: classicfm.com

Clara Wieck Schumann was born in 1819 in Leipzig, Germany. A piano prodigy by age five, the Austrian Court elected Clara Schumann to the prestigious Society of the Friends of Music in 1838.

Robert Schumann, born in 1810, began studying piano at age six. He was influenced by Austrian Composer Franz Schubert and German poet Jean Paul Richter.

While Robert enjoyed studying music, he attended law school in 1828, but preferred music and spent more time composing. Robert Schumann studied music under Friedrich Wieck, whose 9-year-old daughter, Clara, excelled as a pianist. He composed prolific pieces and symphonic studies for seven years studying under Wieck. During this time, he also fell in love with Wieck’s daughter Clara. When Schuman n proposed marriage, Clara’s father forbade it. The separation was difficult and during this time, Schumann composed his famous Fantasy in C Major and other significant works.

Eventually, despite Wieck’s disapproval and second denial of Schumann’s proposal, Robert and Clara married in 1840. While most of the works he is known for were composed in 1840, Clara significantly influenced his future musical compositions which grew to include symphonies, concertos, scherzos, and his most challenging work, a “secular oratorio,” Das Paradies und die Peri (Paradise and the Peri). The Schumanns raised a family with eight children, composed, and regularly toured and performed.

Truth, Beauty, and Goodness At Home

Each semester introduces a new artist and new composer. RAA families are encouraged to discuss the artwork and listen to the trimester composer together. Bringing prints of the artwork home for observation, narration, and discussion bring the artwork to life. Listening to the music in the car or while preparing dinner offers a more comprehensive experience for students to converse with their families about the composition.

Asking the who, what, where, when, and why questions allow everyone to grow in appreciation of how art and music, like reading the Classics, lead us to truth, beauty, and goodness and toward the love of God.

Exploring the First Friday Devotion

The First Friday Devotion is rooted in the veneration of the Sacred Heart of Jesus first made popular by Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque in the 17^th century.  Christ’s Sacred Heart is a reminder of His boundless love, compassion, and willingness to embrace humanity’s sufferings. Traditionally observed on the first Friday of each month, this devotion to the Sacred Heart invites believers to engage in acts of adoration, reparation, and communion. It is through this practice that the tradition of First Friday Mass emerged.

The First Friday Experience at Regina Angelorum Academy

At Regina Angelorum Academy, the First Friday Devotion takes on a special significance. Students and teachers celebrate First Friday Mass together.  The collective school community, including parents, grandparents, and friends, are invited to join us.  Sharing this devotion together becomes a tangible expression of our shared faith.

The First Friday Mass is a time of reflection, offering students and the entire Regina Angelorum Academy community the opportunity to refocus our hearts on the love and mercy symbolized by the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Connecting with Tradition

The tradition of the First Friday Devotion is reinforced at Regina Angelorum Academy.  By celebrating Mass together on First Friday, the entire Regina Angelorum community is united with the Catholic Church in sharing this ancient custom.  The devotion’s significance lies in its historical roots and its ability to foster spiritual growth, community, and a deeper connection with Christ.

The First Friday Devotion is a poignant reminder of the depth of Catholic spirituality and the enduring power of tradition. At Regina Angelorum Academy, this practice takes on a vibrant life, offering students a chance to nurture their faith while pursuing academic excellence. As students and faculty come together on First Fridays to honor the Sacred Heart of Jesus by celebrating Mass, we are further united as a community of faith committed to authentically Catholic education.

About Regina Angelorum Academy

Regina Angelorum Academy, a private Catholic grade school in Ardmore, PA, transforms students entrusted by bringing them to God. Founded to provide a wholesome and rigorous classical Catholic education, Regina Angelorum Academy creates an environment where students are encouraged to grow in their faith and deepen their relationship with Christ.

Our neighbors in Ardmore have become accustomed to seeing Regina Angelorum students and families walk through the community during our Annual Walkathon. When people see us passing, they also notice that we’re doing more than just walking; our walking is a form of prayer, coming together as a community, and enjoying God’s creation.

 The Regina Angelorum Academy Walkathon

The Regina Angelorum Academy Annual Walkathon unites the students, faculty, and families. This important fundraiser supports the Regina Angelorum Scholarship Fund. We have an ambitious goal of raising $35,000 this year.

RAA is an independent, private Catholic grade school. As a result, we do not receive subsidies from local parishes or any financial support from the Archdiocese.

The Regina Angelorum Scholarship Fund is an important resource for families who desire an authentically Catholic education for their children   This year’s Walkathon is on October 20, 2023.

October and the Rosary

October is the ideal month for our Walkathon. It’s a beautiful time to take in the fall foliage.

October is also dedicated to the Rosary. Regina Angelorum Academy is entrusted to the patronage of the Blessed Virgin Mary and we honor Mary in a special way by praying the Rosary as a school.

October is dedicated to the Rosary because of the feast day of Our Lady of the Rosary is held on October 7th. This feast commemorates the Battle of Lepanto.

The Battle of Lepanto was a significant naval conflict between the Christian Holy League, a coalition of European Catholic maritime states, and the Ottoman Empire. In 1569, the Vatican “urged the Rosary for universal use.” Pope Pius V requested Christians to pray the Rosary in 1571. He asked for their collective prayers to seek the assistance of the Blessed Mother during the Battle of Lepanto.

Muslim military forces were expanding the caliphate. They were on the precipice of dominating the Mediterranean Sea and were threatening to take over Europe.

The Christian Holy League was set to engage the Turkish navy at the Bay of Lepanto. The Christian forces were vastly outnumbered by a superior and highly skilled Turkish armada.

Facing defeat, the Pope called on Christians to pray the Rosary and offer this intention for the Christian naval forces. Through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and with the aid of prayer, they achieved a decisive victory.

Pope Pius V attributed the victory to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, specifically through the praying of the Rosary, and as a result, he instituted the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary to honor this event.

Catholics dedicate October to the Rosary, praying and meditating on Jesus’ life through the intercession of the Virgin Mary. Catholics are encouraged to reflect on the mysteries of the Rosary. These mysteries are significant events in the lives of Jesus and Mary. The purpose is to deepen their commitment to this form of prayer.

For Catholics, the Rosary is a particularly important sacramental and devotion. At Regina Angelorum Academy, a private, Catholic grade school for students from Pre-K through 8th grade, it is also important for our students’ formation.

Like Catholics around the world, at Regina Angelorum Academy, we have entrusted ourselves to the Blessed Mother’s patronage.  Through this devotion, we are called to reflect on the profound suffering endured by the Blessed Virgin Mary, as well as the incredible joy she experienced, as the mother of Jesus.  This month, we have a unique opportunity for contemplation, empathy, and connection to the heart of Mary’s experiences.

The History of the Devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows

The earliest Christians were devoted to Our Lady of Sorrows.  During the Middle Ages, this devotion gained prominence.  In the 13^th Century, the Order of Servites was established. This Catholic religious order is dedicated to meditating on Mary’s seven sorrows.

In the 18^th century, the Catholic Church formally recognized the Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows.  Pope Pius VII dedicated September 15^th for this solemnity.  The feast commemorates seven significant moments in Mary’s life that caused profound sorrow.  These include:

• The prophecy of Simeon
• The flight to Egypt
• The loss of the Child Jesus in the Temple
• Meeting Jesus on the way to Calvary
• The crucifixion and death of Jesus
• The taking down of His body
• Jesus’ burial

It is important to note that this devotion is not meant to focus solely on Mary’s sufferings. We remember her unwavering “yes” to God’s calling in her life.  Through the devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows, we are inspired by Mary’s strength and compassion.

The Significance of September

September is the appropriate time for the Feast of the Our Lady of Sorrows.  The changing seasons reflect transitions in life and remind us of the changing times in our lives.  Throughout our lives, we experience ups and downs…joys and sorrows.  The Blessed Virgin experienced unparalleled joys and intense sorrow. She is our inspiration and our strength.

Through our devotion to Our Lady of Sorrow, we also recall Mary’s role as our spiritual mother. She understands us.  She walks with us in moments of suffering. She intercedes for us to her Son and the Father.  Amid our pain, we can find strength in Mary.  By dedicating this month to Our Lady of Sorrows, we open our hearts to the profound lessons she offers, inviting her maternal guidance into our lives and finding solace in her unwavering presence.

A Prayer to Our Lady of Sorrows

Our Lady of Sorrows: Virgin Mary lamenting the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, her son. Feast Day September 15th. Patronage: Slovakia Hungary Poland Capas, Tarlac Malta Mississippi Ronda, Cebu Tanauan, Batangas Bustos, Bulacan Dolores, Quezon Pakil, Laguna

Dear Mother Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows,

In this month dedicated to your compassion and strength, we turn to you with hearts full of reverence and trust. You, who walked the path of sorrow beside your beloved Son, understand the depths of human suffering. Your unwavering faith, your enduring love, and your willingness to stand at the foot of the cross inspire us to face our own trials with courage and grace.

Mary, tender mother, teach us to embrace our sorrows as a means of drawing closer to your Son. As we reflect on the seven sorrows you experienced, may we find comfort in your presence and consolation in your intercession. Help us remember that through every tear and ache, you stand beside us, guiding us toward the light of your Son’s love.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us, that we may find strength in our weaknesses, hope in our despair, and the peace that only Christ can provide. Amen.

We hope that you have enjoyed a restful and fun summer.  We are enthusiastic about welcoming 183 students from 89 families for the 2023-2024 school year!

We have been making numerous preparations and improvements to the school over the summer and we look forward to opening our doors on September 6th.Classrooms have been painted and renovated, our kitchen and basement restroom received much-needed upgrades, and the school has been deeply cleaned.

As Regina Angelorum Academy begins its 18^th year, it is important to pause and express gratitude for our dedicated faculty. Our teachers have spent many weeks preparing for the new school year. They’ve worked tirelessly on new curriculum modules, developing lessons, and creating interactive and engaging activities to guide students on a journey of critical thinking, discovery, and growth.  The summer culminated in an off-site faculty retreat where teachers learned more about interior prayer and came together for curriculum meetings around History, Science, Religion and Latin.

As the school year begins at Regina Angelorum Academy, we are reminded of the important foundation of timeless values and traditions that form the foundation of classical Catholic education. Our dedication to moral integrity, academic excellence, and spiritual development is unwavering.

St. John Bosco  comes to mind as we begin a new academic year. St. John Bosco, the patron saint of youth, served the poorest children in Italy.  He developed a preventative method of education which relied on prevention of behavioral problems instead of the repressive methods of his time. These preventative methods were centered on reason, religion and loving care of the students.  As Catholic school educators, we believe in this approach. Together, we will strive to foster an environment where each student can flourish academically, spiritually, and socially.

At Regina Angelorum Academy, we believe that parents are their children’s first and most important teachers. The heart of successfully educating children lies in the strength of a true partnership and frequent collaboration between families and the school. Parents and guardians provide invaluable support and involvement that influences the growth of our students.  Our Parents Guild provides a partnership between parents and the school administration. We look forward to kicking off the year with our first meeting on September 27.

As we begin a new school year with our Catholic faith as our guide, we will embrace the challenges and triumphs to come. I am confident that with God’s continued blessings and grace, and our collective commitment to our students’ education, we will have another extraordinary school year.

Welcome back to Regina Angelorum Academy!

God Bless,

Mrs. Ann Coffey

While the growth of classical education in recent years has captured the hearts and minds of parents seeking a holistic, well-rounded education for their children, sixteen years ago, the founding parents and teachers of Regina Angelorum already knew that this approach to education would provide the best school and education for their children.  Understanding the growth of classical education, especially among Catholic schools, sheds light on why parents, today more than ever, should consider Regina Angelorum Academy.

The Revival of Classical Education

Classical education is rooted in time-honored traditions and is based on the wisdom of ancient civilizations.  A classical education emphasizes the cultivation of wisdom, virtue, and critical thinking. Grounded in the trivium (grammar, logic, and rhetoric) and the quadrivium (arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy), classical education provides students with a solid foundation for intellectual and moral growth.  Learn more about our curriculum here.

The growing dissatisfaction with the limitations of modern education, such as an emphasis standardized testing and an over-reliance on technology, has led many parents to seek alternatives that nurture a deep love for learning, critical thinking skills, and a profound understanding of human culture. As a result, classical education has experienced a remarkable resurgence.

Rigorous Intellectual Training

The emphasis on the trivium ensures that students develop essential skills such as critical thinking, effective communication, and logical reasoning.

Individualized Attention

Regina Angelorum Academy values small class sizes, allowing for personalized instruction and nurturing relationships between teachers and students. This approach enables teachers to understand each student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles, providing tailored support and guidance.

Summer break offers time to relax, have fun, travel and much more.  It is an opportunity to explore, learn, and make cherished memories with family and friends.  Our faith is central to our lives, not only September through June, but all year long.  The summer months provide a special and unique time to consider the value of our Catholic faith and the importance of Catholic education.

Some of the greatest memories of summer are made in the warm sun, swimming in cool pools, and traveling to see friends and new places. While enjoying summer, here are some summer “assignments” to carry with you on your summer journey:

1. Embrace Gratitude
   God is good!  Thank Him each day for His many blessings.  Thank him for the love of your family, the joy of friendship, and the beauty of the season.
2. Nurture Your Spirituality
   The summer is a perfect time to reflect on the great gift of God’s creation and the beauty in the world around us.  Experience the sacraments by going to Mass each week and going to Confession this summer.  Pray the Rosary while walking on the beach, on a bike ride, or hiking along a trail.
3. Continue to Learn
   Summer is not a time to pause the  quest for knowledge. Dive into the captivating world of books, explore new hobbies, or engage in activities that ignite curiosity. Learning is a continuous and lifelong journey.
4. Build Lasting Friendships: God’s love for us shines through our ability to connect with others and friendships, both old and new, make summer so special:
   Summer friends can be some of the best friends!  Take time to make new friends at camp, down the shore, in summer sports leagues, and in your neighborhood.  During the summer, build relationships and new memories to last a lifetime.

Each of our Regina Angelorum Academy students offer unique and special gifts with great potential to impact the world positively. Our Catholic education, whether it is during the school year or through a summer adventure, instills the values of love, respect, and integrity. Carry these virtues with you wherever you go. Until fall, when we welcome you back to school, gaze on the stars that grace our summer nights, and may God’s love always guide and protect you.
