Our children have had a very positive experience at St. Michael the Archangel Catholic School. Catholic identity is as at the forefront of everything the students do at StMS. The academic program is rigorous. The faculty are supportive, caring, and creative in their lessons, making learning interesting and fun. Throughout the year, students in all grades engage in various leadership and service opportunities and have access to a host of extracurricular activities, including sports teams, arts, and clubs, to round out their education experience. The Parent Teacher Organization organizes a vibrant program of activities that foster a strong sense of community. Overall, we would recommend StMS to any family looking for a Catholic education.

St. Michael Catholic School is a wonderful environment where students can grow in faith, academics, and servant leadership. Pastors, administration, and teachers are caring and dedicated to the formation of the whole child. Students attend weekly Mass on Wednesdays and have opportunities in athletics, the arts, and many clubs and electives. Families are warm, welcoming, and diverse, and there are many wonderful school-wide events to grow the StMS community throughout the year. Can't recommend St. Michael School enough!
