About Archmere

From the Head of School's Desk

Dear Friends,

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.

Archmere students and families experience the continued dedication and effort of a talented faculty and staff. Each day on campus, the energy and drive among students and faculty to create measurable accomplishments are palpable. Sharing innovative thoughts and creative ideas, we are a learning community that recognizes the rapid changes in the world - a community that needs to prepare students for life by constantly assessing, evaluating, and modifying what we do to maximize the positive impact for our students, while conserving resources and maintaining our core values rooted in Catholic Christianity, shaped by the charism of the Norbertine Fathers.

I look forward to expanding the awareness of the formative work we accomplish at Archmere to many more families in the area. We will continue our good work on our instructional core with continuous professional development of our faculty and staff and the appropriate infusion of technology in the learning process.

You have visited us in our virtual setting with a keystroke. I hope this visit will encourage you to come to our beautiful campus. I am excited to welcome you and introduce you to the community of energetic students and accomplished faculty and staff. Archmere is a warm and inviting place because of the people who inspire me each day. I look forward to sharing the Archmere experience with you.

Michael A. Marinelli, Ed.D. '76
