Who We Are
Holy Family Academy VZC is an independent Catholic school serving families of all faith traditions in Van Zandt county and the surrounding areas of East Texas.
Our doors opened on August 15, 2023 on the feast day of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The school is accredited by the Education Department of the Texas Catholic Conference of Bishops, a TEA approved accrediting agency.
We pair rigorous academics with small class sizes and individual support to enable children to thrive.
Our Heart
We provide a safe, welcoming, Christ-centered environment where every child is treasured and treated with dignity as a person made in the image of God.
We believe in educating the whole person—body, mind, and soul—through the integration of faith, academics, and character.
Core Principles

Faith is the foundation of all we do. We embrace the Gospel of Jesus Christ, encourage personal relationships with God, and celebrate the guidance of the Holy Spirit in our daily lives.

We pursue academic excellence by fostering a love of learning, critical thinking, and perseverance. We challenge students to strive for their personal best in all subject areas.
INSPIRING LEADERSHIP
