Research Our Lady of Lourdes School private Schools in Kansas City, Missouri

“OLL is a GREAT school. I have a son that has been there the past 3 yrs. The teachers are exceptional, and it has a family atmosphere. I highly recommend it.”

“We have been involved with Lourdes in Raytown, MO for many, many years. As with everything in life, there are good times and not so good times. This is how it is with Lourdes. Our children attended there, and now our grandchildren. The school has finally changed for the better. New teachers have been hired, and there seems to be more energy throughout the building. Our principal tries very hard to keep the school going, and now, we have a REAL Assistant Principal. Before, the Assistant Principal was there in name only. Our teachers do an excellent job. We have our favorites of course, but we are happy. We remember with joy, in 2006, when Lourdes was honored with a staff member receiving 'Wal*mart Teacher of the Year.' Our fortunate for our little school to be recognized, and for that special teacher. That teacher continues to be one of the most caring.”

“OLL is a great place to be. I have two kids there and feel it offers exceptional teachers while emphasizing Catholic faith and traditional values in a family atmosphere. I am glad we are part of the OLL school 'family' and look forward to staying for many years.”

“This school is a wash out and should give up the ghost. The principal has no leadership ability whatsoever. There was only one teacher we had contact with that I would term an educator. The safety of the children is an extremely low priority. This school tries to put on a good face but the reality becomes evident in a short time: they don't care about education just monthly tuition payments.”

“I have found the school to be wonderful. It has a nice balance of education mixed with religion and family values. All students and families are welcomed and encourage to participate and get to know other families. The early childhood and primary grade teachers are exceptional in their knowledge and ability to work with and teach the young students.”

“Academics is not a priority at this school until a child reaches the third grade. There is no follow thru for students who excel beyond the curriculum formula. A parent must jump through 'hoops' to receive participation from the teachers and principal when trying to arrange for enrichment classes for a child who is in Kindergarten - Second grade. More emphasis needs to be placed on academics for these grades also. There are some parents who do want their child to continue to excel academically.”
