On Wednesday, May 11, Members of the Board of Directors and the Principal, Michael A. LaForgia completed a two year course of study at St. John’s University.
A certificate was signed and presented to the Academy by Dr. Jerrold Ross, Dean, The School of Education, Dr. Mary Jane Krebbs Institute Director, and Dr. Thomas Chadzutko, Superintendent of Schools.   The Board and Administration devoted many nights and weekends to attend various meetings and workshops offered at the University.  We are thankful to the SJU team for their guidance and use of resources to ensure the Academy was providing the highest quality education while strengthening our Catholic Identity. 
   
Divine Wisdom Catholic Academy was part of the FIRST Academy/SJU cohort.  The partnership was formed to support and strengthen each Academy’s CATHOLIC IDENTITY, enhance and promote ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE and strengthen the Academy’s long term viability and stability. 
    
This marks the completion of a two year transition of the school into academy status.  Although the Academy has completed the program, our partnership with St. John’s University will continue to grow.  

Welcome to the Divine Wisdom Catholic Academy website. Divine Wisdom Catholic Academy, established in 2009, is an independent Roman Catholic school formed under the guidance of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn and chartered by the New York State Board of Regents. The Academy is committed to building on the best traditions and standards of St. Anastasia Parish School, which, until its closure after the 2008/2009 academic year, provided outstanding Catholic education for over 80 years. As Directors of the Academy we are committed to achieving the Mission of the Academy and making Divine Wisdom Catholic Academy the model for Catholic elementary school education in Northeast Queens. We thank those in the community for their support, and are grateful for the opportunity to serve students and their families throughout Northeast Queens.
