We have been a part of the Bishop Larkin family for 4 years. It is a truly caring and nurturing environment where my child can learn successfully and grow spiritually. The expectations are high and the teachers give 110%. There isn't one single teacher I would not want my child to have. The children are respectful and caring. I would highly recommend this school.
'Act justly, love tenderly, and walk humbly with God' is Bishop Larkin's motto and that is exactly what they teach. There is such a sense of camaraderie within the school. This school has anything you could want and then some - a kind and patient Principal (Sister Regina), great office support staff, and wonderful, caring teachers that the kids can learn from and more importantly look up to. Some say the curriculum is tough (lots of homework and a certain expectation of integrity in what the kids turn in, etc.) but the children benefit and prosper from this in the future. On a scale from 1 - 10, my family and I give Bishop Larkin a 10+. We would recommend it highly to anyone asking! The ONLY downside is that it is tough in this economy to be able to send multiple children here (or any private school for that matter).
Will keep my children enrolled for another school year, but am incredibly disappointed with the lack of communication on the part of the leadership staff. Too many misunderstandings.
This is my daughter's first year at Bishop Larkin, as she entered kindergarten in September. I can honestly tell any parent, this is the best move I could have made toward my daughter's education. My daughter loves the school, she is receiving great discipline that works; She is not some 'other' kid, but is treated as an important addition to the class. My daughter is 5 years old, and can already read short sentences. She has entered the school in September with only knowing how to write her name; In a short period of time she has doubled her vocabulary, can write full sentences, and is receiving a good Catholic faith. I encourage every parent to consider this school for their child. It will be the best investement you'll ever make.
