St Louis Catholic School

Our family loves St. Louis School! Our 6yo just finished Kindergarten, and our 4yo is in the preschool. My husband and I are very pleased with the faith-based education our children are getting, starting in preschool and continuing in the grade school—from attending weekly mass, focusing on a new virtue each month, frequent prayer and service opportunities, as well as excellent academics. The Catholic faith is not relegated to religion class only it is integrated throughout the day in learning, discussions and interactions with faculty, staff, administrators and clergy. Here we have found friends and a warm, welcoming community of supportive families. The teachers we’ve met so far are all wonderful: kind and loving to our children, while still able to handle discipline and difficult situations that may arise. I volunteer with the Resource department, which offers extra time and attention both to students who need help keeping up with their class and to those students who could benefit from more challenging work. Our children can’t wait to get involved in the athletics and other extracurricular activities offered at St. Louis as they get older. We are here to stay!

This school is outstanding in so many ways. It's on a great property it's safe and filled with loving and nurturing teachers and staff. There are many activities for the kids and the academics are excellent. There is no bullying or bad stuff going on - it gets handled immediately. Can't say enough about the amazing school we are a part of.

I have three children at the school, 7, 5, and 3. One is in the grade school and two are in the pre-school. My husband and I absolutely love this school. Our children are loved and cared for with an understanding that children learn differently and what works for one child may not work for another. They are patient and kind and handle discipline appropriately based on your child's age and their understanding of the wrongdoing. St. Louis is an environment where your child cannot only learn but thrive as an individual and in their values. My husband is non-Catholic and loves this school just as much as I do. We appreciate the sense of community and know that families genuinely care for one another. There is always someone there to help out when you need someone to carpool or for an after school playdate. I have no doubt when my children graduate from St. Louis they will not only be prepared academically but also understand the value of their neighbor and that it is just as important to be a good person as to get all A's.

We transferred into St. Louis from Fairfax County public schools and have never regretted it for a moment. The faculty and administration are very much focused on our children's growth. It's a very warm, positive environment and my four children feel loved and cared for.

We have loved St Louis. We currently have a 3rd and 4th grader. Both kids are learning at a pace that works for them, while understanding that their Catholic Faith is a part of their every day life. (Not just something you do once a week on Sunday). The staff and administration knows all the kids by name and we fee like it is a real family. It has been a wonderful fit for our family.
