Alumni Testimonials

Regina Pacis Academy seeks to: educate our students in the humanities, the sciences, and authentic Catholic teaching, so each may develop a sense of what is true, good, and beautiful, form the whole person of each student to put truth and Catholic moral values into action with a disposition toward service, and enable students to meet the challenges of life with high self-esteem by teaching them how to think. The fruit of this education can be seen in our alumni.

Meet Maria!

Maria went on to attend Cardinal Kung Academy for high school. She is now a freshman at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota.

The education and community that I gained through RPA equipped me well for high school and college. RPA began my formation as a young Catholic; there I learned how to think, how to read and how to write. RPA fostered my desire to pursue the Truth in all things. I am very grateful for the foundation of Faith and Knowledge that RPA had given me, and for the ways in which this foundation continues to flourish in my life.

— Maria Marchetti (RPA, ’19)

Meet Sam!

As an incoming Freshman, Fairfield Prep awarded him the “Magis Scholarship”, which is Prep’s highest financial award for academics and character for incoming freshman.

Regina Pacis Academy taught me a great work ethic. This enables me to achieve wonderful results inside and outside of the classroom. I am so grateful for the teachers who helped me see what was needed. They prepared me well for the challenges of high school.

Meet Peter!

Peter went on to achieve Dean’s list in both high school and now in college, where he received a scholarship to play Division One football at Sacred Heart University.

I really enjoyed how the teachers focus time on each student, individually. When I struggled, the teachers never quit on me and always gave me the opportunity to succeed. The size of the school and class helped me build strong bonds quickly.

— Peter Schanne (RPA, ’17)

Meet Alexander!

Alexander went on to attend Cardinal Kung Academy and was just recently accepted to Thomas Aquinas College in Massachusetts.

From my experience, Classical education has not only encouraged educational and philosophical pursuits, but also promoted the application of knowledge to the lifelong endeavor of discovering the Faith and it’s many attributes. Classical education exists for it’s own sake, but it’s uses extend beyond the limits of jobs and tasks into the formation of the very human life one lives. I thank my parents for granting me this education that has not only permitted me to become academically successful, but also allowed me to deepen my comprehension of the Faith Christ has bestowed upon His Church.

Meet Cassie!

Cassie Tyler (nee Pelli) was one of the first students of our school, and is now a mathematics teacher at St. Benedict Classical Academy in South Natick, MA.

On a personal level, I was so blessed to have a community of like-minded friends and teachers. It was so important in those formative years to have teachers with a faithful Catholic worldview. When I moved on to public school, I realized how counter-cultural my life was, that during my formative years I was given that protective “bubble” that allowed me to understand who I am and what my purpose is.

— Cassie Tyler (nee Pelli)

Meet Bella!

After graduating from RPA, Bella continued her studies at Cardinal Kung Academy. She is now in her second year at Thomas Aquinas College in Massachusetts.

From a young age, I was equipped with a Classical education that not only fostered my ability to know more about the world, but also to desire and seek the True, the Good, and the Beautiful. Looking back, I am grateful to my parents for choosing an education that continues to bring forth fruit in my life. I would not be the same without it. I am a blessed girl!

— Bella Martinez (RPA, ’18)

Meet Madeline!

Madeline currently attends Cardinal Kung Academy in Stamford as a Junior. She was a part of Kolbe Academy’s National Honor Society and she is an active member in her school’s community.

Regina Pacis Academy taught me the value of a classical, Catholic education. The community of teachers, families, and, students is striving toward a higher education that is faithful to the teachings of the Church. The lessons I learned during my six years at RPA have greatly impacted me and have been carried throughout my years of high school. I am forever grateful to everyone who makes this school possible.

— Madeline Bishop (RPA, ’21)
