St. Rose Catholic School has exceeded my expectations in terms of fostering a school community that cares about the growth and development of my children. It is a place where kids are encouraged to be kids, enjoy free play, care for one another, and teach compassion and empathy, all the while setting high expectations for academic achievement. All children are gifts from God, and this is truly celebrated at St. Rose.

Saint Rose has been such a wonderful school for our kids to attend. They have so many programs that are not offered in Public schools anymore. The kids and staff really care for each other. My children are excelling in all subjects. It is nice to be a part of a school where ALL of the parents want to be a part of their kids education.
