Our school philosophy includes educating the whole person. Our curriculum follows rigorous guidelines established by the Diocese of Camden Office of Catholic Schools. These guidelines build on the strong academic tradition of Catholic Schools, incorporate national and state curriculum standards, and allow us to bring the Gospel message of Jesus into all facets of learning. St. Michael the Archangel offers a wide range of courses that allow students to develop a world view, build on their critical thinking skills, and have fun along the way.
