testimonials
"My family and I have been part of the St. Rose of Lima community for about 4 years. Our three boys attend St. Rose school: our oldest is in 4th grade, our middle child is in 2nd grade and our youngest is in the Preschool. Being a graduate of Catholic schools, I envisioned my children obtaining the same foundations in Catholic school education that I had received. When I toured St. Rose of Lima School, I was not only impressed with the warm environment, but also the number of clubs and extracurriculars such as Chess, Mock Trial, Math Club, Flag Football, Mandarin to name just a few. Being a Blue Ribbon of Excellence in Education also impressed me. The Administration, Faculty and families at St. Rose welcomed my family with open arms. My children have hard working, dedicated teachers who give so much of their time, support and love to each one of them. The school is under the leadership and guidance of a phenomenal Administration as well as our beloved, devoted pastor, Monsignor Weiss. We are beyond blessed and grateful for all that St. Rose School has done and continues to do for our family and for all of the families who are part of this community.”
Mrs. Erin Nordt –Parent
"We could not be happier with our choice to send our children to St. Rose of Lima School. The faculty, as well as the families, have been extremely welcoming and supportive. It truly is like a family. Our children are thriving in their academics and are building a closer relationship with God; they are happy." Lisa K, Parent
