The Signum Fidei Scholars Academy offers a program where students of exceptional promise nurture aptitudes, develop skills and grow in faith. The curriculum is designed to challenge the most capable student, providing him the opportunity to develop the skills necessary to excel in higher education. Academy students are automatically scheduled to take advanced placement classes in English composition, English literature, U.S. history and macroeconomics, accredited by St. John’s University. Students study Latin in conjunction with a modern world language and complete a senior capstone project. Grades given in these courses are weighted proportionately higher to compensate for the extra work required on the part of the student at 1.03.
