History
Established in 1984 by the Catholic Diocese of Baton Rouge, St. Michael the Archangel Diocesan Regional High School is located in the South Central Deanery on 63 lush acres in White Oak Subdivision, and is surrounded by protected wetlands under the auspices of the school. Staffed by a dedicated faculty comprised of religious sisters, laymen and women, the school is fully accredited by the Louisiana State Board of Elementary & Secondary education and by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Operational guidelines are based on the administrator’s handbook for the State of Louisiana.


Mission
Formed in Catholic tradition, the mission of St. Michael High School is to foster the spiritual, intellectual, and personal development of young people as committed disciples of Christ.


Goals
Catholic schools, which realize the four-fold purpose of Christian education – to teach doctrine, to build community, to worship, and to serve, are the most effective means available to the Church for teaching young men and women to grow into adulthood according to the measure of Christ. To promote the development of the whole person, that is, to help each student realize his or her potential spiritually, morally, intellectually, emotionally, physically, culturally, socially, and aesthetically, the administration and the faculty and staff have set forth the following goals. So that each student will be enabled to become a fully integrated person, St. Michael the Archangel High School will provide a learning environment entrenched in:
  • A firm foundation of Catholic doctrine
  • A working knowledge of moral values based on Christian principles
  • A reverence for religious traditions, which encourages students to assume responsibility in the Church and society
  • A desire to contribute to and to participate in a community of Christian faith
  • An example of and support for the development of respect for self and the dignity of others in a pluralistic society
  • Skills which develop qualities of leadership, responsibility, accountability, cooperation, and service
  • A strong college preparation program in the fields of mathematics, science, social sciences, and the humanities in order to meet the needs of a rapidly changing society
  • Proficiency in reading, writing, and oral communication and familiarity with the process of research and critical analysis, which are the essentials of a college preparatory education
  • Opportunity for enhancement of human performance and challenged in a strong physical education and health programs
  • Activities which promote one-to-one relationships and group interaction
  • Opportunities to investigate and discover areas of particular interest and to achieve self-actualization by participation in curricular and extracurricular activities
  • An understanding of the American system which emphasizes the rights and responsibilities of citizens of the United States and of the world
  • Opportunities to master self-discipline in academics and in behavior
  • Appropriate guidance programs which present academic, career, and personal counseling,
