I've been a supporter of Holy Rosary Academy since I first heard about it in 2002. The classical curriculum with a faith basis is unmatched anywhere in the state. I was there as faculty when new ideas emerged including thesis defense, don rags, service projects, and more. Every new program is rolled out thoughtfully with the entire student body in mind. I can only give my highest recommendation to Holy Rosary Academy.

We have been impressed with how much math and reading our children are taught in school. The school teaches a genuine love of the Catholic faith and that is permeated throughout the day in all of their classes. HRA is limited on space so they can only accommodate 15 students per class.
