Description Summary St. Pius X Classical Academy is a Catholic elementary parish school (pre-K through 8th grade) fully accredited by the State of Tennessee. The mission of St. Pius X Classical Academy is to manifest God’s love in the world through a commitment to the spiritual, moral, emotional, and intellectual development of its students accomplished through the use of a classical Catholic curriculum. The Catholic Church recognizes the parents as the primary educators of their children; hence, St. Pius X Classical Academy encourages the partnership between families and the Academy to enhance every child’s educational experience. We at St Pius strive to impart a classical education and promote our Catholic culture which will enable students to become well-formed Christian citizens in their community, life-long learners and to prepare them to live and to spread the Gospel. We believe that each person has been created in the image and likeness of God; therefore, each person has inherent dignity and value. We believe that all persons can achieve their God-given potential. Everything that we do at St. Pius is rooted in the source and summit of the Christian life, the Eucharist. That is why we start every single day with an all-school Mass, and on First Friday’s students spend time before the Blessed Sacrament in adoration and benediction.
