"St. Agnes School has been a wonderful learning environment for my three children. If you are looking for a school with strong academics and a sense of community than this is the school for you.The principal is very passionate about making St. Agnes the best school it can be and that feeling is contagious. The teachers are committed and have worked hard to develop a strong academic program. We know this to be true as 12 of the past 15 receipients of the Neumann Scholarship have come from St. Agnes. A Peace Praxius program was recently implemented as well as a new Junior High Wing. There is so much school spirit and it is evident at the annual School Play, the annual Talent Show, CYO sporting events, etc. The thing that sets St. Agnes apart from the other schools in the area is not only the strong academic program but the sense of community. Parent Involvement is always welcome and we have such wonderful families at our school. There are tons of extra curricular activities for the children (drama club, music lessons, science enrichment,newspaper,cooking club, gardening club, scouts, etc.). I am proud to call myself a parent of a student at St. Agnes School!"

"The teachers are very good and the facilities have improved. Unfortunately the priorities of this school (or should I say the priorities of too many parents) are sports, academics, religion (in that order). Flip that upside down and make it religion, academics, sports and the school would be a value. If your child plays a lot of sports he or she will fit in.....if not you should look at other schools."

"Our family is receiving an excellent academic experience at St. Agnes. Our children have had many opportunities to participate in service projects, which is very important to us, as well as a variety of extracurricular clubs such as drama, writing, student council, and sports. We are so grateful to our friends and neighbors who convinced us to call St. Agnes for a tour several years ago. The school is helping us develop our children into the fine young people we want them to be."

"Our family is entering its 8th year at Saint Agnes School, and we can't say enough great things about it! For one, our principal is a dynamic leader who is welcoming, open to new ideas, and very accessible for communication. She knows the students and families like they are her own. Families quickly feel at home here, with daily opportunities for parents to be involved. It goes without saying that the students are presented with rigorous academic programs, with remedial and gifted programs to address individual abilities and learning styles. Upon visiting the school, many are taken back by how 'modern' it is, with its full Science and Computer labs, multiple gymnasiums, active library, music and art programs. Extracurricular opportunities abound, as well. Acknowledging the needs of others through service quickly becomes a natural way of life at St. Agnes, whether it means tutoring another student, assisting the elderly, or volunteering for a nearby organization. Our downtown location is ideal for building relationships with other programs, and the school is always looking for ways that its students can "give back." We are so thankful to have found this gem of a school in our town!"
