      I have had a daughter recently finish St. Rose and move on after 7 years of attending and now have a son in 4th grade. St. Rose is a family. I never worry about them when they are at school because I know they are taken care of like they would if they were home with me. The staff is amazing and so caring. They all know each by name, not just those they work with on a regular basis. The other families share our ethical beliefs. We have made amazing friends and a wonderful support system by being part of the St. Rose family!

      We couldn't be happier that we chose St. Rose for our daughter. We love the small class sizes and student to teacher ratio. Not only is she thriving academically but she is also being taught respect and manners which seem to no longer exist in society. The teachers and staff are all friendly and know you by name. The Principal, Mrs Rizzuto, is very dedicated to the school and students. She is always available to talk and knows you by name as well. The students regardless of grade level help one another and sometimes work together on projects. If you are looking for a school with a religious influence, nurturing environment and teachers who love what they do this is where you need to send your children.
      St. Rose Elementary has an excellent partnership with its parents. We collaborate to improve the academic, spiritual, and social/emotional aspects of our school environment for our students. We are passionate about reading and providing our students with the tools they need to become productive global citizens.
