We put a good deal of thought into where our children attended grade school. We explored all of our options: public, private, Catholic and other Christian schools. All Saints was our last school visit. We had pretty much made up our minds to go elsewhere and were just checking the box by making this final visit on the list. That’s when the Holy Spirit stepped in and took the reins!...
Annunciation School is a great place for parents to work with students and other parents that become life-long friends!

As the parent of three graduates of Ascension school, I would like to share the reasons why I believe that a Catholic education from Ascension was instrumental in allowing my children to succeed in their educational goals. Each of my three daughters started first grade at Ascension -- graduating in 1996, 1999, and 2001. Ascension provided each of them with an excellent foundation in all of...
JP II Catholic School provides an excellent well rounded education. I like it that "extra" subjects that other schools cut, such as high quality art and music programs, physical education, and Spanish as a second language are all offered. The communication between the school and parents is wonderful, and on the website you can check and see what your child's homework is, or skills...
I took a few minutes to comment about my dividends for a lifetime from my Catholic education. My Catholic education brought me and my family academics, spirituality and community. My Catholic education began at Sidney Holy Angels, where in 1979, a group of fourth grade students began writing BASIC programs on Radio Shack computers. In that computer lab there was a crucifix that we could...
Our Lady of Victory School has always had a very welcoming atmosphere. As you enter into the building the school is bright and warm. The office staff greets you and often a child will hold a door for you. The teaching staff will stop and say hello and you feel as if you are entering a place where children are cherished and valued. That is important to us as parents who want to know that...
The Purcell Marian Scholars program has helped me realize the values and importance of my high school career. My time here, I now see, can greatly impact my future and the Scholars Program has helped me maximize what I get out of that time.
As alumni of RB and OLA we had a wounderful time at these schools and hoped to let our children have the same experience we had and so far so good. We have had both a girl and boy go though the halls of RB and they have both found a place that they love. They had great teachers and faculty. It showed when they applied for collage and what they got into and scholarships they got or will get. RB...
My name is Jaclyn Hyde and I’m a senior at Seton. I am the youngest of four and my two sisters attended Seton before me. For as long as I can remember, I knew that I would follow in my sisters’ footsteps and attend Seton as well. I knew Seton was a great school and I expected to have a good high school experience, but what I didn’t expect is how much Seton would change...
When deciding where to send our oldest daughter to kindergarten, I was a stay-at-home mom and Catholic schools would have meant a huge financial sacrifice. We chose the highly-rated public school and it was great; however, I felt early on that something was missing. It was the sense of community and more importantly, God. So I began visiting Catholic schools and was excited the day I came to...
I know the value of a Catholic School Education especially in urban areas. I attended a Catholic grade school from Kindergarten through 8th grade and then attended the local public High School. I never had to bring a book home from school to study. The good study habits instilled during grade school allowed me to finish all of my studies and homework during school hours and graduate as...
Making the decision about your child’s education will be one of the most important decisions you will have to make for your child. It will take time and consideration to examine all aspects of the intended school. We chose St. Cecilia after many months of consideration for our daughter Alexis. She started in Kindergarten and is now in the 3rd grade. She has excelled in many aspects...
St. Gertrude is more that a school with a proud seventy-five year history; it's a living community of students, parents and teachers who each day strive to learn, support and encourage each student to be the best that he or she can be. Dedicated teachers work together in teams to provide a top notch education while meeting each student's unique needs. As a...
Another great year!!! The teachers and tutors were great! They worked very well together and kept us informed. My son benefitted greatly from all their hard work and understanding. We have a very loving and accepting staff here at St. Ignatius...We thank everyone's efforts. Our children are so blessed to be part of a school community where their differences are not judged but embraced!!...
When our family first toured St. John the Baptist in anticipation of sending our daughter to kindergarten, we were immediately impressed how welcoming and friendly everyone was. Our first impressions were 100 % accurate. After she started kindergarten, we could tell immediately that our daughter was receiving a top notch education from caring, dedicated professionals. Also, we couldn't be more...
I have only favorable comments regarding the education of my daughters at St. Louis. My name is Laura Hayes and my husband and I have two daughters, Sarah (15) and Emily (18), who both attended St. Louis School from 1st grade through 8th grade. We could not have asked for a better environment or better role models for our girls. An education can be obtained at any school but at St. Louis,...
St. Michael School in Ripley, Ohio, is one of the best kept secrets in Brown County. This school offers many things that a larger school cannot. The main reasons that St. Michael School is here.... To Know Christ: Through formal religious instruction as well as through the integration of the faith dimension into each and every academic subject area and social activity, our school strives...
About 6 years ago our son was attending a local school and a friend asked us why we didn't have him enrolled at St. Peter Catholic School because they were a National School of Excellence. Soon after visiting the school we enrolled our son, then in the first grade and our daughter in the preschool. My husband and I often say it was the best move we ever made. Our children, now grades 6 and...
Thanks to St. Teresa School, our sons have received an excellent education. St. Teresa has prepared them well for the challenges of high school while also instilling in them Catholic beliefs and values, which are very important to us. Our son David received the Charles and Ava Fries Fine Arts Scholarship to Elder High School. He is now in his senior year and has earned first honors for every...
