We moved to Cedar Rapids 13 years ago and didn't know where to enroll our young sons in our new community- All Saints was an easy choice for us after researching many schools in the area - the "feel" of the school was warm and kind and the preschool/faculty immediately made us feel welcome. We have been very happy with our two sons' preschool to 5th grade experience at All Saints due to the smaller class sizes, school community, leadership opportunities, additional STEM and computer science curriculum, and makerspace hands-on projects . The teachers have been great to work with- they are helping to get them ready for middle school and teaching them how to be kind, thoughtful, and caring individuals. All Saints has been a wonderful school for our children and we would recommend to anyone.

Both of my children recently graduated from All Saints Catholic School. We believe that All Saints gave them a strong foundation in education and community to give them an edge when they moved into middle school. Originally, Catholic education was not part of our plan, but many signs pointed us to consider it. Being in a safe, value-based community that was respectful to one another and the teachers was important to my children’s ability to grow and learn. Having the faith and value system as an important part of the everyday activities in school, developed our kids and their peers. It shaped them, not only academically and morally, but also helping to make them well-rounded, community focused students. One of our favorite activities is “Write On”, an annual event in which the students have a writing and art project that is developed into a book that they read and present to an audience of families. Every year they have a great project that displays how they grow from year to year. The teachers and principal at All Saints truly put a lot of time, effort and care into their classrooms. We are so thankful for All Saints Catholic School. If you need a change from the current school setting you are in, I would encourage you to visit All Saints, you will immediately see and feel the difference.

This is our second year at All Saints Parish School. We have been impressed with their progressive learning style of teaching with a student-based learning approach verses a course-based approach. They are rooted in faith, while promoting character developement and leadership skills. They lead other schools in technology. New SMART Boards in each classroom, and mobile computer labs integrate technology into the classroom. We are honored with earning the S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) grant this year.

My children have thrived at All Saint because of the staff and the parents. My oldest child had concerns with his reading and has been receiving amazing ongoing help since this early detection in Kindergarten. I received an email today from his 4th grade teacher (who may have been MORE excited than I) that his Reading MAPS Test score increased 12 points putting him at the level he needs to be. This never would have happened without every teacher in that school watching over him. My heartfelt gratitude goes out to all his teachers who supported him through the years! ~parent of a 4th grader

Finally a school that gets it! This school actually teaches the student instead of just the course. They use assessments to see what each kid needs and teaches them accordingly so they are constantly challeneged and meeting their academic potential. It takes much more work on the teachers' part, but they are willing to go the extra mile for their kids! Love this school!
