This is so much more than our school this is our home and our family. The education my children receive is excellent and the community that surrounds them is the best we could ask for my kids.

We love St. Rita, and experiences that we have had there. The academics, school culture, sports, and activities are awesome. What we would like to see more of is diversity, and diversity training for staff and students.

I am so happy that we chose to send our son to school at St. Rita. I love the small class sizes and the time that the teachers take with the students. The principal, Mr. Sikora is very personable he seems to take his time with the students and parents. We like the different extracurricular activities that are offered.

Overall, we are thrilled with St. Rita’s as a whole. The school offers an inclusive environment and allows are children (2nd grade and K) to excel.Another positive aspect is the “extras” that the school /parish provides in terms of clubs, sports, and other church related activities.
