At Christian Brothers Academy (CBA), high school students are encouraged to unlock their full potential. In addition to the pursuit of high academic achievement, CBA strives to promote well-being and develop resilience and empathy while supporting the bonds of brotherhood formed within its halls.
DEVELOPING THE WHOLE PERSON
A two-time National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence, CBA’s educational model is known for its complete, holistic educational experience both in and out of the classroom. Based on the teachings of St. John Baptist De La Salle, and nurtured by the founders and lay people of the Academy, CBA’s mission to provide a contemporary and balanced Catholic high school education that develops intellectually mature and morally responsible leaders has shaped men of character since 1959.
“No child is simply the student who sits in row two with an 85.5 GPA, but rather a child entrusted to the care of the educator—deserving of mentorship and support in mind, body and spirit,” says Director of Mission Integration Matthew Meehan.
The opening of a Bloomberg financial lab, digital media studio, makerspace, visual arts studio and expanded performing arts room provide students with opportunities to explore their passions and develop skills in core academic disciplines. CBA students are involved in awardwinning theater and music programs, 18 interscholastic varsity sports, and nearly 50 extracurricular activities that include a range of academic, service-based, cultural, social and creative clubs.
A COMMITMENT TO HELPING OTHERS
“Students at CBA are learning at a high level while at the same time developing as grounded, well-rounded men of character,” says Director of Enrollment Jennifer Maccarella.
In addition to daily theology classes and school-wide masses, class-level retreats and clubs devoted to community outreach, CBA offers service immersion trips to various sites around the country, enabling students to put their faith into action.
“I’m inspired by our students’ dedication and commitment to impactful service experiences, both locally and across the country,” says Principal Neil Begley, Class of 1996. “Each component speaks to the holistic approach of CBA’s Lasallian educational model, developing young men of faith, character and action.”
