As the Northwest’s premier Catholic independent school, Villa Academy merges a challenging academic program with a spiritual legacy inspired by our founder, St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, more than one hundred years ago. Her heritage is one of compassion, service to others, and a continual pursuit of excellence. 

At Villa we offer our students a chance to grow intellectually, physically, emotionally and spiritually —whether they come to us in preschool, kindergarten, sixth grade or someplace in between. Our inclusion of preschool through 8th-grade means that students are joining a community uniquely tailored to help them forge lifelong friendships while building confidence in themselves and their abilities.

Villa students have a love of learning that reaches beyond our dynamic classrooms to our beautiful, wooded campus, where lessons are often brought dramatically to life — whether it is preschoolers gathering apples in the orchard, fourth-graders recreating the Lewis and Clark trail, or middle school students studying soil formations and tree growth patterns. And students in every grade participate in the Cabrinian tradition of helping others in need through community service. It’s another reason why Villa graduates are so well prepared to succeed not only in school but also in life.

Of course, the best way to experience the energy and enthusiasm of Villa Academy is to visit us in person. We look forward to showing you around our extraordinary school!

Warmly,

Polly Skinner

Head of School
