Mission
Saint Edmond’s Academy is a community of families, educators, and partners inspired by the values of the Gospel. In the Holy Cross tradition, we are committed to the education of boys from grades K-8. Incorporating contemporary thought with individualized instruction, a challenging 21st century curriculum, and a focus on the core values of heart, mind, hope, zeal, and family, Saint Edmond’s Academy develops boys of character in a community of faith.
History
Reverend Jacques Dujarie organized the Brothers of Holy Cross, originally called the Brothers of Saint Joseph, as a teaching community in 1820 France. In 1837, Blessed Basil Moreau associated these Brothers with a society of auxiliary priests to establish the Congregation of Holy Cross, a religious community of priests and brothers. After the establishment of the University of Notre Dame in 1842, the Brothers founded additional schools across the country, adding to other Holy Cross schools in Europe and throughout the world.
Core Values
As a Catholic school, rooted in the traditions of Holy Cross education, we are dedicated to empowering our students with values for life. From a young age, students develop an understanding of five core values distilled from the writings of Blessed Basil Moreau- heart, mind, hope, zeal, and family. Students learn to respect themselves and those around them, embracing the likeness and differences of all.

Next Up Behind the Bar… A Little SEA History and a Whole Lot of Lancer Pride!
Our Guest Bartending competition continues, and we're excited to introduce our next two contenders: Leigh-Anne and Ryan!
For this duo, Saint Edmond's Academy is more than just a school. It's a place where traditions, relationships, and values are passed from one generation to the next.
Leigh-Anne shared:
“My dad, Mr. Meginniss, taught at SEA for many, many years and meets former students nearly everywhere he goes. That’s the SEA difference: dedicated teachers, a strong community and core values that last. Now my son gets to experience the same.”
Ryan shared:
“We chose SEA because we want our son to be known, nurtured and challenged: academically, socially and spiritually.”
But when it's time to step behind the bar, the friendly competition is ON!

“I've never seen four boys move that fast to make sure someone wasn't standing alone.”
It was a Tuesday morning in the gym at Saint Edmond's Academy on our first week of school. A new third-grade Lancer walked in during warm-ups. New school. New faces. A room full of boys who already knew where they belonged. He stood for a moment, looking around, unsure where to go. Then something happened.
A few Lancers noticed him.
Without being asked, the four boys stepped out of line, crossed the gym floor, and welcomed him into their warm-up circle. Arm in arm. Just like that.
“I've run a lot of warm-up circles in my time,” shared Mr. Durant, our Physical Education teacher. “But I've never seen four boys move that fast to make sure someone wasn't standing alone.”
No teacher had asked them to do it. There was no lesson about kindness that morning.Just four boys who saw someone standing alone and decided he shouldn't have to.
For that new Lancer, it was probably a small moment in a very big day.But sometimes, the smallest gestures send the biggest message:
You belong here. And that's what being a Lancer is all about.
Many Gifts. One Family.

Science has never tasted so good! 😋
What does a pretzel look like? 🥨 What does a marshmallow smell and sound like? How does applesauce feel? 🍎 And, most importantly… how do they taste?
Our first-grade Lancers put all FIVE senses to work during a delicious Science investigation! They observed, smelled, listened, touched, and tasted three different snacks, recording their findings on a chart just like real scientists. 📝🔍
And, of course, no investigation would be complete without enjoying the fruits, or snacks, of their labor!
A fun, hands-on (and very tasty!) way to end a great day of learning at SEA!

Mes de la Herencia Hispana en SEA!
Because learning a language is about so much more than words. It’s about discovering traditions, connecting with people, and appreciating the cultures that make our world so special. From September 15 to October 15, our Lancers celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month by exploring the rich cultures, traditions, and diversity of Spanish-speaking countries!
From Kindergarten through 8th grade, our boys learned through colorful crafts, hands-on activities, cultural experiences, and special guests who helped bring these traditions to life!
🁢 A special ¡GRACIAS! to Mrs. Stasio for visiting our classroom and teaching our Lancers how to play dominoes!
🧉 And to Señora Vasko for sharing a little piece of Argentina by preparing traditional mate and teaching the boys about its cultural significance.
¡Gracias por celebrar con nosotros!

Next Up Behind the Bar… A Dynamic Duo Ready to Take on the Competition!
Our Guest Bartending lineup keeps getting better! This time, we`re excited to introduce Matt Laken from Cramers Uniforms, our wonderful uniform specialist and community partner, and Alicia Milley, a proud first-grade parent!
They may come from different sides of our Lancer community, but they share one thing in common: a love for Saint Edmond`s Academy!
Matt shared:
“SEA is unlike any other, with the best leadership, great families, and incredible young men. Cramers Uniforms is honored to be part of such a remarkable community. Our son Cameron just turned one, but he’s already got his eyes on that red jacket!”
Alicia shared:
“From our very first tour, they promised us a true brotherhood, and they have delivered on that promise every day through their overwhelming love, support, and sense of community. We are forever grateful to be part of the SEA family.”
From a community partner with a future Lancer already dreaming of his red blazer to a family experiencing that special SEA brotherhood firsthand, these two remind us what makes our community so special!
So, who`s getting your support? Team Matt or Team Alicia? Go to the link in our bio to support these bartenders.
Come cheer them on, let them pour you a drink, and help them climb the leaderboard while supporting Saint Edmond`s Academy!

LANCER HIGHLIGHT!
Meet Colton.
Colton is an incredible worker who wants to do the right thing. Now that he’s at Saint Edmond’s, he’s thriving academically and even becoming a leader to younger Lancers!
Your gift created the best environment for Colton to be educated in heart and mind. And here’s an example of your gift at work!
Colton was in the aftercare room, finishing some homework. A first-grade Lancer looked on, waiting to watch the video Colton had promised they’d watch together. But Colton needed to finish his homework first. Once he did, Colton kept his word, and the two enjoyed a fun video.
Your gift creates powerful moments like this, where a Lancer shows what it looks like to work hard and keep your work to a younger student.
We’re so proud of Colton and his growth, and we’re so thankful for your generosity in supporting students like Colton!
