Lacordaire Academy gave me the confidence and skills to succeed in my endeavors through college. I had the chance to start my own club, hold positions of leadership (soccer captain/ member of NHS), work in the after school program, along with many other experiences. The community at Lacordaire is very tight and diverse. I am extremely grateful for the experiences and the people I have met through Lacordaire.

I love Lacordaire. I spent all four years of high school here, and I miss it so much. The teachers are so nice and able to assist their students at all times. The workload is significant but it really helps to prepare you for college. Counselors work with you one-on-one throughout the college admission process which is great. Yes, it's small, but that gives more opportunity for students to connect with their classmates as well as develop strong relationships with the teachers.

I love Lacordaire so much because all the teachers are amazing and are always here for you! They are small classes but great because they all listen to your ideas and questions

We love Laco! Our family has been at the school for three years, and between our kids we have experienced most of the Lower School grades. It is a relief to know that our children are in great hands while still being held to a high academic standard. Thank you Laco!

We will never stop regretting our decision to send our child to this absolutely horrible school.

My daughter is in the upper school and is exceeding all expectations because the Academy has prepared her to do so and she demands it of herself. The Academy sustains a rigorous academic workload; the students are expected to be involved in many of the extracurricular clubs, organizations, and sport...

All girl school. Good feild hocky team. Campus feel with excellent prep for college. Small classes and individual attention. This extra attention makes all the differnce for behind the curve in certain classes. Teachers care and a good language program in French.
