St Rita School is a safe environment with a staff of dedicated teachers and administration that care about their students and love their profession. The school is one that develops the whole person in values, standards and morals and prepares them well for their next level of secondary education. This is proven by the wide acceptance of its graduating classes to private and major Parochial High Schools. The avreage Iowa Testing scores exceed the comparative scores of the public schools by far. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
