"A longitudinal research study found that in 8th grade, the most important predictor of 12th grade GPA was student grades, followed by academic achievement, psychosocial, and behavioral factors."

Students at Fatima consistently out-perform public schools and many parochial and private schools, both locally and nationally. Fatima’s 8th grade student standardized test scores consistently average two grade levels above the national average.
We believe the academic education of our children during these formative, pre-high school years must provide measurably accomplished achievement. Fatima students are taught how to participate in the classroom, exposed to public speaking, and encouraged to engage politely with other students and adults. The combination of academic, spiritual, and psychological education best prepares our middle schoolers for high school.
