Testimonials
We have been at Resurrection School since 2010, and we plan on being here until 2027 when our youngest graduates 8th grade. She will be our third child to graduate from Resurrection, and all three started in Junior Kindergarten. We would not have it any other way. The staff and students along with their families are like our extended family. Our children (and us too!) have made great friends here. Most of all, we are pleased with the well rounded education that fully prepares all students for high school.

We ultimately chose Resurrection over other Catholic Schools in the area due to its strong reputation, smaller class sizes and focus on a faith filled learning environment. After touring the school and meeting the staff, we knew it was the right place and are convinced we made the right choice. Both our children are fully prepared for the rigors of Catholic High School and have lifelong friendships that will stay with them forever.

We were looking for a school that would combine a strong academic program with a balanced approach to student life, faith-based teachings, an inclusive sports program and smaller class sizes.
Since joining, we have come to greatly appreciate some of the special programs that Resurrection offers such as the Buddy Program, where older students are paired with younger students for mentoring and buddy sessions. The students also have many opportunities to develop public speaking skills during morning announcements or during the weekly school masses.
Although we joined for the school content and programming, we have really stayed for the community. The Resurrection community has been tremendously helpful through a difficult time adjusting to Covid-19 and being away from our extended family and we’ve ended up setting down permanent roots here. We’ve made some of our closest friends at Resurrection. Our children have developed strong friendships and gained much more self confidence from the school and programs that it runs. The Resurrection community is very welcoming and supportive for both students and families. We are so happy with our decision to join Resurrection.

Resurrection has been incredible for our two daughters (K and 4th grade). Res provides a sense of community that couldn’t be found anywhere else, and as busy parents it is reassuring to know that on top of a great education they have a safe and nurturing before and aftercare environment. We are so thankful to be a part of the Resurrection community.
While there are many excellent schools in the area, very few foster a true sense of community and belonging. Our children are thriving in the wam, caring community of Resurrection. Teachers not only know their students, but they know every child in the entire school. Our oldest has been at Res for 5 years now and her confidence is blossoming. Our youngest thrived in their excellent TK program and smoothly transitioned on to kindergarten. Both of our children are growing academically and emotionally thanks to the nurturing environment of Res.

Dear Mrs. Wright,
I believe you are aware that Gabriella was accepted into Mitty and Notre Dame but I am not sure if you know of the accolades she received from both schools. I wanted to share them with you because I think they are a reflection of Resurrection just as much as they are of Gabby.
Mitty accepted her with ‘academic distinction’ in both language arts and math and placed her in accelerated English and advanced math. Notre Dame recognized Gabby as a Julie Billiart Scholar and a Francoise Leader for her academic achievements. They also placed her on their “Accelerated Pathway” program and into Global Studies Honors, English Honors and Biology Honors.
Gabby’s composite score on the HSPT was 99! Her grade equivalent for reading is 11.5, math 11.5 and language 11.2! If you see the breakdown of her HSPT scores you will be amazed…it’s indicative of the teachers at Res, you included as you laid the foundation back in 4th grade!
To say Gabby is excited and proud is an understatement! I think she is finally able to absorb the recognition for her achievements and contemplate her choice for high school. As Gabriella decides where to attend next year, I am reminded of the feeling I had when I first toured Res and wish that I could give that feeling/knowledge to Gabby as she weighs her options. I toured many Catholic schools and didn’t find that perfect fit until I met with Mrs. Crowley for a tour. Minutes into the tour/discussion with her I knew Res was the place for Gabby. I have never regretted my decision. When Gabby was younger she was very shy and I think most schools would have just dismissed her but every teacher that Gabby has had at Res has given her the time to come into her own and encouraged her. I thank you and the Res community for nurturing and preparing her all these years! Gabriella is in your care 7 hours a day and during that time you have given her the tools to be successful morally and academically and that is all I could ever have hoped for 10 years ago…yet back on that tour I had an inkling that this school would prepare Gabby for this moment…the moment of having great opportunities for high school delivered to her in her mailbox.
Thank you!
We’ve been through six grades at Resurrection and couldn’t be happier! My kids have blossomed working with their teachers, both academically and socially. The teachers have provided extra attention in the areas my children needed it, especially as they resumed school post COVID. In daily activities, the older kids interact very well with the younger kids.
Res has done a great job building community amongst all ages and abilities. We appreciate the variety of programming – from Spanish, to religion, and even music class – they each have their favorites. Res takes a very well balanced approach to daily activities and is helping my kids to become well-rounded in their interests. Also, the before and after school care is very helpful on those days we need flexibility in our schedules — and our kids love that too!

We chose Resurrection School because of the very good education system and the healthy school-community relationship. The school helps in setting up the students for success, not only in terms of academics but in character building as well.
Our 10-year old son attended Resurrection school for about 6 years now and did not experience any form of bullying. This is important to us as Resurrection provides a safe environment for all students to learn and to grow. Another plus is the smaller class sizes. Students receive more individualized attention, and the students are able to interact more with the teacher. In addition, the teachers have more flexibility in the way the class is taught.
To our family, Resurrection isn’t just a school. It is absolutely our son’s home away from home.
