VILLA MARIA ACADEMY is a Diocese Of Erie secondary school originally established by the Sisters of St. Joseph in 1892.  On July 1, 2009, Villa Maria Academy joined with Cathedral Preparatory School to form the Erie Catholic Preparatory School.  Cathedral Prep will remian as an all boys campus and Villa Maria will be an all girls campus.

VILLA MARIA ACADEMY is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Education.

In 2009 we participated in Region 3 of District 10 in Northwestern Pennsylvania.  Our team goal is to be the first girl's varsity soccer team from District 10 to win a state championship. We were the Region 2 champions in 2004 and 2005.  In 2006 and 2007 we finished in 2nd place.  In 2008 we moved to Region 3 and finished in third place.  In 2009 we were the Region 3 Champions with an undefeated season.  In the 2004 and 2009 seasons we were the District 10 champions, the first AA team from District 10 to win the Western Finals as well as being the first AA team from District 10 to be a State Finalist. In 2007 we were D-10 runner-up and Western Championship Quarterfinalist.  We have a very aggressive voluntary off-season program including free skills training and indoor soccer, spring travel soccer, strength training, speed training and a 6v6 league. Our Soccer program is designed to provide the participants the opportunity to learn and refine their soccer skills.
