Located in the Ojai Valley, it is a coeducational preparatory school that offers both boarding and day programs for grades 9-12 and a sheltered English only program of English as a Second Language (ESL). Villanova Preparatory School strives to display the characteristics that mark it as an Augustinian school as stated in the Educational Mission Statement of the Schools of the Province of St. Augustine. These characteristics include an emphasis on the primacy of love,a dedication to seek the truth, a fostering of tradition, a desire to serve a diverse population, and a commitment to build community among our faculty, students, staff, parents, and alumni. The school serves students who indicate their desire to succeed in a strong academic curriculum. Following the liberal arts tradition, the curriculum aims at preparing each student for admission to a university. The curriculum acknowledges the traditions of Western civilization and places particular emphasis on Judeo-Christian values and teachings. The program of studies seeks to provide students with the necessary skills for successful life in a world of rapid technological and social changes. The school emphasizes effective oral and written communication, study skills, critical and interpretive thinking, and the ability to make rational, informed judgments. To help students become mature citizens of the City of God, Villanova provides religious instruction that is true to Catholic doctrine and which echoes the teaching of St. Augustine. In addition, the school strives to give non-Catholic students an understanding of Catholicism and helps them nurture their own spiritual development. As a community in which students, teachers, and parents share in the life of the Holy Spirit, the school endeavors to foster an individual spirituality that promotes a concern for the issues of charity, Christian service, and justice in daily life. Villanova recognizes that parents are the primary educators of their children. Therefore the school encourages their full cooperation in their children's education. The school attempts to educate the whole person. As a result, it provides students with extracurricular programs and athletic activities that challenge, inspire and develop sound bodies and minds. All activities at Villanova seek to promote social responsibility and teach students how to work harmoniously with others in achieving common goals. By creating a positive and caring environment for both resident and day students, Villanova promotes learning, love, unity, and respect for others as primary considerations. The school's ultimate desire is to graduate students who think, judge, and act in ways which are sound and in keeping with the teachings of Jesus Christ. In the Augustinian tradition, we also desire to graduate young adults who express the qualities of love, truth, and community.
"At Woodside Priory we offer a competitive interscholastic athletic program. At the same time, we give every student the opportunity to participate. Our teams routinely compete for league and section championships, but we are able to maintain the philosophy that everyone should have a chance to be a part of our program and experience all that athletics has to offer. Many of our athletes are awarded all league and all section honors every season and a few go on to compete at the collegiate level."
