We couldn't be happier with our family's experience at SPSL, and would highly recommend the school!!
1/2/2023
Although SPSL shines at academics and spiritual & social growth, the school's tagline "It's not just a school, it's a community" could not be any more true. Students and their families really experience a sense of belonging and connectedness that creates community. Both of our children attend/attended SPSL and we believe they are better prepared academically and socially for high school than their peers.

I love that the teachers get to know ALL of the students. Not just the students in the classroom. My kids love going to school and I love what they are learning and the caring environment they are in. The special education program is amazing too.

SPSL is a top notch school. We moved to Pius Leo when my oldest daughter was in 5th grade, previously attending a public school. Neither my husband or I went to private school, and we weren't originally seeking it out, but I'm so glad we did! Pius Leo offers the benefits of a larger school, with the...

We have two boys (2nd grade & Pre-K) at St. Pius X / St. Leo School and we can't say enough great things about our school! From the get go, we’ve felt welcomed and supported by a truly caring community. The teachers and administration are nurturing, dedicated, communicative and genuinely invested in...
