Resource Teacher

St. Jerome Academy is a PreK-8th grade Catholic Classical School of the
Archdiocese of Washington, DC. We educate children in the truest and fullest
sense by giving them the necessary tools for learning and by fostering wonder
and love for all that is genuinely true, good, and beautiful.
We emphasize classical learning because we want our students to read well,
speak well, and think well, and ultimately because truth and beauty are good in
themselves and desirable for their own sake.
We seek to incorporate our students into the wisdom of two thousand years of
Catholic thought, history, culture, and arts so that they might understand
themselves and their world in the light of the truth and acquire the character to
live happy and integrated lives in the service of God and others. In this
profound and comprehensive sense, education extends beyond the classroom
and is more than just skills acquisition.
Our school has served the Hyattsville area for 80 years. Children ages 18
months through 5 years old learn through our Montessori Curriculum, while
students in grades K-8 learn through the classical Educational Plan of St.
Jerome Academy. Since switching our curriculum in 2010, we have grown from
230 students to now serving nearly 500.
