It is school that provides the child with a loving, caring religious environment which gives the child a great sense of community. The teachers are tuned into individual needs, and classroom size is less than 20 children. We are very happy with our children learning to be their best selves Morally and academically at this school.

Excellent academic standards. Accommodations made for students with learning disabilities. Help raise students to be good citizens, promoting volunteer work outside of school, and empathy to those in need.
