What is the difference between a school and an academy?One key priority of Preserving the Vision, the strategic planning process for Catholic education in the Diocese of Brooklyn, is to transition all Catholic elementary schools to academies by 2017. The main difference between a school and an academy is in the governance model. A Catholic school is governed by the parish, so the pastor is directly in charge. An academy is governed by a two-tiered board that is comprised of a Board of Directors and a Board of Members. This image depicts the transition.

Academy Roles

The Board of Members is comprised of pastors aligned to the academy, the bishop, and the superintendent. Together, they function as prime sponsors of the academy. They appoint the Directors and ensure the overall Catholic identity of the academy and its programs. In some cases, the “Board of Members” oversees multiple academies.

The Board of Directors is composed of lay people who function as the governing body of the academy. They select the principal and serve as the immediate supervising body. They are passionate about Catholic education and share their expertise in the areas of: finance, facilities management, institutional advancement, marketing, and public relations.

The principal is the instructional, educational, and spiritual leader of the academy, as well as its chief educational operating officer. He or she also communicates directly with the Home/Academy Association.

The Home/Academy Association is comprised of parents who have children in the school. It serves to support and enrich the educational and formational endeavors of the academy, and works to promote a connection from home to academy.

The teachers and the staff members fulfill the mission of the academy. The teachers plan, guide, and evaluate the learning process of the students for whom the teachers are responsible within the framework of the academy’s philosophy, organization, and curriculum. The staff implements the mission through their assigned responsibilities.

This inspiration permeates all we do to develop the Christian atmosphere present in our school. We treat each other as well as our students with respect and expect the students to do the same. We realize the strong foundation we provide is essential for a successful life. Therefore, we foster an atmosphere where learning can take place. We foster academic excellence for all of our students. We are cognizant of the fact that each of our students is an individual. Therefore, each student must be treated in a way that enhances his or her personal development.

At AMCA, we are actively involved in forming the whole person spiritually, mentally, and physically. Students develop a positive life outlook and self-image through the teaching that all people are worthy of respect, have a right to their dignity, and are special in the eyes of God. Through the integration of Catholic religious truths and values within the curriculum, students develop insights into the problems that face individuals and society today. Students also acquire skills to address these issues effectively. Through prayer and in conjunction with parents, priests and community, our mission is to instill a love of life, respect for others, an eagerness to learn and a willingness to grow and follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and action.

Teaching as Jesus did, with respect, sensitivity, compassion and concern, guides the Board of Pastors, the Principal, and the Faculty of Saint Stanislaus Kostka School.
