One of my favorite schools in Hamden! As a parent, I highly recommend this school to everyone!
St. Rita School is a wonderful asset to the community of Hamden. The students are friendly, bright and engaging. They have wonderful programs for academics, arts, sports, and community involvement. Most importantly, the character formation of students is grounded in strong values and the love of Christ. I am proud to be associated with this school as a Current Board Member.
My wife and I feel extremely fortunate to be able to send our children to St. Rita School. Our three boys have been given an excellent academic and moral foundation. The teachers have responded wonderfully to the special needs of our middle child who has a hearing impairment. He was almost two years below grade level when he started at St. Rita and now he is excelling. We are truly grateful for the hardwork and kindness that the faculty and staff have shown to our family. There is a true spirit of community, caring and acceptance.
St. Rita's is an AMAZING school where 'the love of Chris is lived and shared.' The staff, faculty, and teachers are superb, and the kids are very well-behaved and well-educated.
St. Rita truly prepared my children for high school and college. Not only were my children prepared adademically but they were nourished spiritually. The same values my husband and I were teaching at home were reinforced at school. I would highly recommend St. Rita to all parents and children.
St. Rita is more than a school. It is a family community built of faith. Every teacher and administrator in the school looks after each and every child. The academics are first rate. St. Rita children get a strong basis in reading and math and are taught organizational skills and time management that prepare them to excel in high school and beyond. Most importantly, the school is supported by a strong faith community.
