There are many staff members that are wonderful. However, our family's experience overall has been negative. Poor communications, misgivings, too much $ spent to pretty the school, not COVID friendly and more. I wanted this to be the school for our family. Disappointed.

Most of the teachers at RCS are very passionate about their work and they like to see their students succeed. Unfortunately, the small school size means that you may have the same teacher for many years and fro multiple subjects which is hard for many students because certain teaching styles do not work for every student.

The school provides very good learning environment, the curriculum is engaging, and the teachers are supportive and encouraging. The only thing the school doesn't have is athletic facilities, so they have to use surrounding schools for that.

This is a honest review…..As a parent of two former students and a practicing Catholic, this school has changed drastically over the past few years (not in a positive way). There are a few caring teachers that will go beyond to help your child succeed. These few teachers are top notch, the positive...

We sent our son to Roanoke Catholic after experiencing Botetourt County schools. After seven years at Catholic, we are thrilled with the education he has received and the quality of the character of the staff and administration. The teachers are hard working and set high expectations for the student...

I was a student here and honestly the religion classes are a joke and their idea of quality education just means piling on the homework.
