关于:HSP的历史和原因
圣灵预备学校是一个独特的信仰和喜乐社区, 在那里，家庭和教师共同努力，培养快乐健康的有信仰的青年男女，他们的特点是懂得如何在我们这个时代生活的审慎，以及追求上帝赐予的才能的伟大灵魂. Our students read great works, imitate heroic lives, and live a culture of life.
圣灵预备学校成立于1996年，是由圣灵天主教堂的家长和教友发起的, 在牧师的领导下, Msgr. Edward Dillon, who wanted their children to receive an authentically Catholic education. 这所新的独立天主教学校, 最初被称为唐纳伦学派, 以亚特兰大大主教托马斯·唐纳伦命名, was founded with a clear and enduring vision of providing an education that was Catholic, Classical, and Complete. Filling a much needed place, HSP grew to graduate its first high school class in 2006.
Today, 在天主教会和西方文明的教育遗产中，对形成整个学生的教育的承诺仍然是圣灵预备社区背后的驱动力. 我们寻求提供一种超越时尚、潮流或潮流的永恒教育, 回应教会的福音使命和教会对天主教学校的愿景:“在所有教育工具中，学校具有特殊的重要性. 它的设计不仅是要特别小心地发展智力，而且要形成正确判断的能力, 传承前人的文化遗产, 培养价值观, 为职业生涯做准备.” (Vatican II, Gravissimum educationis, 5).
