University Experience
In the pursuit of academic distinction implied by our name, St. Pius X - St. Matthias Academy (PMA) is committed to delivering a level of education that transcends ordinary standards. Functioning as an academy, our vision transcends conventional boundaries; we aspire to provide a Catholic University experience tailored for teenagers.
At PMA, our mission is clear: guide each student towards discovering their purpose, where their unique talents intersect with the world's needs. This journey unfolds within an educational ecosystem designed to foster self-awareness, community significance, and the courage to embrace opportunities for growth and leadership.
Our distinctive approach results in the cultivation of empowered, faith-inspired individuals who become valuable contributors not only to their local communities but to the world at large. PMA is synonymous with visionary leadership, impassioned educators, resilient and optimistic students, supportive families, and an actively engaged community.
We provide unwavering support to students in every facet of their lives, be it academic pursuits, extracurricular engagements, athletics, or, fundamentally, their spiritual growth. PMA Warriors, as our students are affectionately known, graduate embodying the principles of Pride, Virtue, and Purpose.
Our success stories echo in the halls of renowned institutions like Stanford, Cornell, USC, UCLA, UC Berkeley, Brown, Boston College, and beyond. PMA students thrive in a college-ready environment, enriched by unique opportunities such as the Early College Program and Dual Enrollment in collaboration with Cerritos College. The Onward Scholars Program further elevates our commitment by providing mentorship, scholarships, and comprehensive college readiness initiatives.
At PMA, we unlock the potential for excellence, fostering a community where every student discovers their purpose and confidently strides towards a future defined by Pride, Virtue, and Purpose.
