As an alumni of OLPH it was an obvious decision to also enroll my son. My son started OLPH's nursery class at the young age of three. He is now in the 2nd grade and is doing extremely well. I absolutely love the school and staff.

The teachers are top notch and the children are prepared to become future leaders. The school has many programs to offer including a state of the art computer technology lab.

It has been around forever and is an integral part of the neighborhood. It is known for its superior education and to instill traditional values and a strong work ethic as well as teaching children about their religion.
