About Tyburn Academy

Our Mission
Tyburn Academy of Mary Immaculate provides a high quality college preparatory education in the Catholic tradition at the middle school and high school levels. Students will be instructed in the classical liberal arts and sciences. The board and faculty share a unity of purpose with parents to foster the intellectual and moral development of students. Christian values are the foundation basic to all our endeavors and form the principles to which Tyburn Academy adheres.
The Name Tyburn
Tyburn Academy is named to honor over 300 English and Irish martyrs, 40 of whom are now canonized, who gave their lives at Tyburn crossroads, just outside Hyde Park, London from the years 1535 to 1681.
The Tyburn logo depicts the scaffold at Hyde Park on which these martyrs were hanged, drawn, and quartered for their faith. Today the spot is marked by a circular stone in Bayswater Road running past Hyde Park inscribed with the cross and the words: "The Site of Tyburn Tree."
School Structure
A Board of Directors runs Tyburn Academy. Board members are elected for a period of three years. The function of the Board is to determine the educational policies and to oversee the fiscal running of the school.
Our principal, Mrs. Jeanne Hogan, heads Tyburn Academy staff members. Mrs. Hogan, and a team of three administrative assistants oversee the day-to-day operation of the school. The school is composed of Grades 6 through 12.
A typical school day at Tyburn consists of seven periods. Daily attendance is taken during homeroom and students are expected to arrive in full uniform and on time. The pledge of allegiance, morning prayer and announcements are said at this time.
