St. Rose of Lima School

My child's teacher lacks warmth. I don't agree to their rule that if you got an award the previous year you won't get any this year. I think if a child deserves it he/she should get it, I don't think it's fair to give some one an award just because he/she didn't get it the previous year. On my child's birthday, I brought in some treats/ snacks for the class. Their teacher didn't even bother to initiate for the class to sing a happy birthday song to my child and I don't even remember the teacher mentioning the word "thank you". My child went home feeling bad that day after school. Teacher quality POOR, Principal leadership just ok. Parent involvement is also ok. My child will definitely not come back next year.

If you are lucky enough to afford private school tuition, do your child a favor and send him/her to St. Rose. Wonderful school, great teachers, and amazing parent community. St. Rose of Lima School is a family.

Love love St. Rose of Lima School! Our daughter graduated from St. Rose and is in her second year at Academy of Our Lady of Peace. Received a lot of support from principal at St. Rose. My daughter was thoroughly prepared for high school and we were very satisfied - in fact, I miss it. Not only are we happy with the academics, we enjoyed getting to know the other parents through all of the opportunities to interact. This school is worth the money. Try to stay clear of the parent drama, because there is some. Avoid those people and you will love it!

I have been a student at St. Rose and my knowledge as well as my confidence have improved immensely. I can genuinely say that my education is advanced and taught by teachers who are dedicated to leading their pupils to success. All teachers challenge their students and are always willing to help. The new campus is amazing and now the parents are pitching in and buying us microscopes! In addition, I have made friends and gained memories to last my lifetime. I feel my whole class has become a close-knit family. In closing, I would like to say that I have become closer to God through the encouragement of my teachers and family.

Wonderful school, excellent teachers, brand new facility. No school is perfect but this one comes close. I just watched my son graduate from St. Rose last night after 9 years of education there. He is well prepared for high school, balanced, and most of all he respects his Catholic faith. Despite the ups and downs, I will never regret sending him there. Truly an amazing experience.

Before enrolling here attend and tour other open houses of other Catholic Schools and look at books, ask questions, etc. No teachers on hand, books ancient, lack of pride. School is beautiful but lacking warmth. Parent involvement minimal at best and only forced due to points. Lack of leadership and security is minimal. Children in upper grades need tutoring to enter HS.

I am a student at this school, and I'm sorry to say, I'm thinking about moving. The 7th grade students misbehave, and our teacher doesn't teach us anything. I am not challenged.

Excellent School! The Curriculum and Level of Education is superb with the work and dedication from the church, faculty and staff.

My child attends St. Rose, but i feel that she is not getting the best education possible. The teachers gie her a huge amount of work and she is stressed most of the time. As a parent I do not enjoy seeing my child stay up all night trying to finish homework and study. So, i am considering removing her from this school.
