Academics

Annunciation Catholic School implements curriculum and selects text books based on the Standards and Guidelines prescribed by the Archdiocese of Washington.  Religion, Reading, Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science form the basis of our core curriculum.

Annunciation Catholic School and its faculty and staff are dedicated to developing the whole student through a community experience that stresses solid academics, encourages an active faith life, and follows God’s laws. Students are challenged to learn how to respect the dignity of God’s life, to develop themselves according to their God-given talents, to be aware of the truth of God’s love for all, and to live in God’s faith.

To achieve these four life-long ideals – dignity, development, truth, and faith – students at Annunciation Catholic School are challenged to integrate these principles into their daily lives. These ideals are stressed as part of Annunciation’s educational philosophy and are expressed through a lived life of faith by administrators, faculty, staff, students, and parents/guardians. Each student is expected and challenged to show growth in these four life-long ideals as part of their education at Annunciation Catholic School.

To encourage students to work to their full potential, each teacher strives to identify individual needs and accommodate them.
