Root Beliefs
The value of the immigrant
Our student body consists of children of immigrant families from various ethnicities, with a vast majority being Latino who we believe will play a vital role in the future of our society. We embrace their culture and celebrate their heritage while providing them with a Catholic education.
Respectful, Responsible, Dependable
Every morning students recite our creed: “I am a student of San Juan Diego Academy. I am faithful, respectful, responsible, and dependable. I will succeed in school, I will graduate high school, and I will go to college.” Our students understand that regardless of how the world treats them, they are upstanding members of society and are expected to be faithful, respectful, responsible, and dependable.
Faithful servant leadership
Our students attend weekly Mass, complete their First Communion, and fulfill Confirmation during their time with us. They grow in their faith and in their relationship with God and adopt attitudes of servant leaders. They are instilled with a desire to live a Christ-like life through servitude and to be leaders and changemakers of society.
College going culture
We recognize that in the current age there are a variety of paths to pursue higher education, including college, vocational-technical programs, apprenticeships, and the military. Education is vital in the advancement of society and the individual. We empower our students to pursue higher education and the hope of improving the circumstances of the next generation.
