HOLY ROSARY ACADEMY
Where Faith and Reason Meet in the Pursuit of Excellence
PreK - 12th grade Independent Classical School in the Roman Catholic Tradition
A PreK-12 school in the heart of Anchorage, Alaska, Holy Rosary Academy supports parents in their quest to develop wisdom and virtue in their children. Through our curriculum rooted in the greatest traditions of Western civilization, we strive to instill a love for the truth, an appreciation for the natural wonders so prevalent in the Last Frontier, and a devotion to Christ and His Church.
Where Faith & Reason meet in the Pursuit of Excellence
We believe in excellence and pursue greatness for our students. At Holy Rosary Academy, that means students are presented with the great ideas: an understanding of the truth tested by centuries. They meet Homer, Aristotle, C. S. Lewis, Jonathan Swift, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Saint Augustine, Flannery O’Connor, Isaac Newton, and George Washington. They explore these authors and ideas in face-to-face seminars, engaging the words of those great men and women themselves. In a world swayed by relativism, our students learn to reason. They learn to love the faith of Saint John Henry Newman and of Saint Thomas Aquinas. They experience how, as St. John Paul II told us, “faith and reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth” (Fides et Ratio).
Experience Holy Rosary Academy
Our students don’t just study the truth—they live it every day. They attend Mass together and participate in the rosary and the Stations of the Cross. They hike, sing around a bonfire, go ice skating, paint, compete on the soccer field, build snowmen, act, debate, and serve our community. Their joy is evident and their enthusiasm is contagious.
