Our family has had a wonderful experience at St. Als over the past two years. The teachers are caring, attentive, and truly invested in the students' growth. Our kids, now ages 4 and 6, have thrived in the nurturing environment, enjoying both the academics and the faith-based values emphasized at the school. We've seen them grow not just in their learning, but also in kindness and character. Special thanks to Mr. Padrnos, the principal, for his leadership and dedication to fostering such a positive atmosphere. We're grateful for the sense of community and would highly recommend St. Alphonsus to other families.

This is our second year at St. Al's, and we are extremely pleased with the school. Our kids are challenged academically and thriving socially. The school staff is amazing; they care so much about the "whole student," and appreciate each child's unique gifts and abilities. LOVE the single-gender middle school. Great concept!
