JA Faith

The core of an Ursuline education is faith, and it’s woven into every part of the JA curriculum and experience. 

As a Catholic school, we gather for all-school Masses regularly. JA students join with the high school to come together as a community to celebrate, including Holy Days and special SUA traditions. 

JA students can participate in all-school Masses as servers, readers, gift bearers, and members of the Music Ministry team. 

Retreats

All students at SUA, including the JA students, participate in one off-campus class retreat per year. While faithful to the Catholic teaching and tradition, these retreats are inclusive of all students. Every class retreat at SUA is focused on a specific theme that connects to that grade, opening the hearts and minds of all students in relationship to one another and love of God.
