Each elementary school Principal in the Archdiocese of New York can nominate one or two students to receive a full scholarship to this program.
The day at the academy is typically three hours, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm one Saturday a month during the Fall and one Saturday a month during the Spring for a total of 8-10 courses. Each class is taught by an expert professional.
Subjects have included:
Debate and Rhetoric

And many other fascinating topics
