St. Aloysius prides itself on its creative approach in educating children. Faculty strives to create a curriculum that is responsive to the students in the classroom allowing for collaborations between children and teachers. Our flexible approach to curriculum enables children’s learning and teachers’ thinking to be made visible through varied forms of documentation. We DO NOT administer MCAS testing or other state issued standardized tests. However, we use the Archdiocese of Hartford Frameworks as a guideline for content to be covered at specific grade levels. M.A.P. (Measure of Academic Progress) will be administered at least twice per year to students in grades K-8 throughout the Worcester Diocese.

St. Aloysius’ School offers students opportunities for growth in the following major subjects:

• Religion – Catholic doctrine and tradition, Bible study, and social justice.
