School Reviews

5  
We have had the best experience at Our Lady of Loretto School. Our two children are current students. We have been at the school for the past 7 years. Our children are thriving due to the academic rigor, faith-based values, loving & supportive teachers, small class sizes, and wonderful community. OLL offers special classes such as computers, Spanish, music, and art. We have middle school electives and after-school enrichment classes such as coding, acting, and hands-on wildlife science. We love our traditions here at OLL. The students go to mass as a class monthly. They have a free dress option once a month for a local charity in which the children bring in $5 for the selected charity. We have class buddies and school families in which my children get so excited for these fun activities. We have wonderful events throughout the year where we can come together as a community and support our school. This school is our home away from home. We can't wait to see where our kids end up in high school all due to this amazing path they are on.
