We love Holy Family!! This school is full of amazing teachers, administrators and staff. I am so grateful that my son is at a school where he can thrive academically, and grow spiritually.

I have been at Holy Family Catholic School for over 14 years and believe that right now, it is perhaps the strongest it has ever been. We have a new Principal who is doing amazing things for our kids and my kids are thriving. My older kids have been very well prepared and successful in high school. The teachers are happy and it shows in how they interact with our kids. The number of sports and extracurricular activities has increased and become more inclusive of younger grades. It is a great place to be right now.
