What sets us apart?

     Holy House is uniquely situated in several ways. The authority of clergy certainly sets us apart, as does our Latin course (we have the only accredited Latin as a second language course in Alberta), but what we cherish most is that we literally go to school with Jesus. He is truly present in the Tabernacle set upon the altar — our school days begin and end in His glorious presence. Our teachers and all staff encourage our young people to embrace a sacramental world-view where we are drawn, hearts and minds, into a greater and greater union with the Triune God. Through our academic studies, we learn about the Good, the True, and the Beautiful, but we actually commune in body and soul with Goodness, Truth and Beauty itself in the Blessed Sacrament. All our studies hinge on the study of the revelation of Jesus Christ, particularly through the Incarnation and His Real Presence in the Eucharist.
    Another aspect that makes us unique is our effort towards the practical integration of the home, school, and Church. Restoring the domestic church and the Catholic academic tradition means an investment in an authentic common life. The goal is for students to discover the influence and beauty of Catholicism in every aspect of culture and in their own lives, growing in holiness, and drawing ever closer to the Triune God.
      We believe all of this and more, makes us, along with our sister schools in Calgary and Derwent, a wholly unique and rare educational opportunity for children in the province of Alberta and in Canada.
