Tradition evokes emotion. Archmere's long history of accomplishments as well as the promise of future inspirational moments are incentives for those of us who are a part of the Academy's community to remain committed and to encourage others to become acquainted with the school. Join me in service to our students, making the Archmere experience meet and exceed their expectations.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Report
Saint Norbert's vision was to give people a "sense of place" and belonging, and the Archmere Academy community seeks to embody that vision. Archmere embraces this tradition wholeheartedly, recognizing that what inspires its students most to achieve are the relationships they form while they are here.
