Academics at Saint Viator are driven by a mission that seeks to develop the whole person — spiritually, intellectually, physically, and emotionally. The classroom environment fosters the growth of the individual, challenging students to develop their relationship with God.

• All classes are college preparatory, empowering all students to become lifelong learners making sound choices in a changing world.
  
  
• Querbes Scholars are students of exceptional academic promise, intellectual curiosity, intrinsic motivation, and faith-based concern for others. The program provides opportunities that foster faith-based academic excellence, personal growth, dedication to service, and a lifelong love of learning. 
  
  
• Saint Viator admits students of all ability levels. Students with diagnosed learning differences will find help in the Scott R. Scanlan Learning Center, a resource room staffed with teachers who help students succeed in the college preparatory environment.
  
  
• The curriculum supports collaboration, innovation, decision-making, and leadership development.
  
  
• Honors courses are for students with a high aptitude in the subject who are willing to meet the challenge demanded by higher-level thinking skills. These courses move at a faster pace and students do more independent work, including coursework over the summer.
  
  
• The Reverend Mark R. Francis, C.S.V. International Program provides a supportive environment that focuses on a student's needs and enables him or her to develop the cultural understanding and performance skills necessary to function appropriately and successfully in both academic and social situations.
