My husband and I grew up in the catholic school system and knew we wanted that same experience for our children. We now have four children attend St. Adelaide and we absolutely love how the entire administrative staff & teaching staff put their heart and soul into the growth and development of our children. I'm forever grateful to have found a school that shows what the true meaning of a catholic school is. My kids adapted quickly to this school and made friends instantly because everyone was so welcoming. Teachers and staff are like an extended family and they always have a listening ear. They care for their students and take the time to help each and every one blossom into their full potential. They offer other fun social activities to get the families together. They offer a variety of sports as well to get the kids involved. I highly recommend this school.

St. Adelaide Academy is a great school with caring and dedicated teachers and administration. They focus on the whole child and create a family atmosphere that you do not find in other schools. I highly recommend sending your children to this school. They have preschool to 8th grade.

Wonderful Pre-K and Kindergarten program. I''m Muslim and I went to school here from 1998-2000, 6th-8th grade. My parent's didn't care that it was a Catholic school because they wanted me to have a great education. My children are currently in this school because like my parents I wanted to give them a great education as well.
