Template:Infobox School Saint Gregory’s Academy is an all-male Roman Catholic boarding school located in Elmhurst, Pennsylvania. It is associated with the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter. The Academy offers a threefold education and formation: spiritual, intellectual, and physical. Students participate in Traditional Roman Catholic liturgy, are provided with an excellent intellectual formation, and are given the opportunity to participate in competitive high-school level athletics in the form of two sports: soccer and rugby. It operates with the permission of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Scranton.
The object of St. Gregory’s Academy is taken from Pope Pius XI’sDivini Illius Magistri:
The specific and immediate purpose of Christian education is to cooperate with divine grace in forming the true and perfect Christian… the true Christian, the product of Christian education, is simply the supernatural man: the man who feels, judges and acts always and consistently in accordance with right reason enlightened by the example and teaching of Jesus Christ.
