Prayer & Service

Morning Prayers & Assembly

Our Kindergarten - 8th grade students and teachers gather each morning to start our day in prayer. We recite a decade of the rosary, say the Pledge of Alegience, discuss the virtue of the month and learn about the Saint of the day. Any other needed announcements are made at this time.

  • Annual Service Projects

    Ave Maria Academy also takes seriously the Lord’s words to his disciples in Matthew 25: 40, “whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” For this reason the students have several opportunities throughout the school year to engage in service projects and to practice the virtue of Christian Charity by helping the poor, and the sick, and the vulnerable. Past projects have included: Feed My Starving Children, Sharing Caring Hands, St. Therese Senior Care, Franciscan Brothers of Peace, March for Life, Interfaith Outreach & Community Partners, Little Sisters of the Poor, Simpson House, and many others.
