With a faculty and staff of 55, mainly lay personnel, and approximately 380 students, the academy has a teacher–student ratio of 1 to 15 and an average class size of 20 to 25 students. In keeping with its Catholic identity and Ursuline tradition, the academy focuses greatly on community service. The school's motto is Serviam. This is the motto of all schools of the Ursuline Sisters of the Roman Union. The young women are required to complete a certain number of hours volunteering. They have joined with the young men of Cardinal Hayes High School in the "Cardinal Hayes Program Exceptional Children". The program takes place most Sundays during the academic year.

Students also are involved in service activities through the United Nations, in their parish, elementary schools and community organizations. (en)
