Pros and cons here, like with any school. The reason we’ve stayed here so far is the excellent education my child has received. My child is always excited about what she’s learning, is continuously challenged in a way that makes her love learning, and looks forward to going to school- those things are a big deal for us . The disappointing aspect for our family has been the lack of community- to the point of feeling very cold and unwelcome at times. Even though we started several years ago in Pre-K, from day one, there was a large group of parents in our grade level who seemed to already know each other and it was quite “cliquey” from the start. Despite my best efforts in reaching out, volunteering, etc, our family still seems to be almost… invisible? at least with many of the parents and the handful of teachers that seem to cater to the “popular group” of parents. This school has a long way to go to become the inclusive, welcoming, diverse community they say they want to be. That being said, the new principal is kind, caring, and gives me some hope for a better feeling community in the future. For now, we are staying at Holy Rosary.

We have been so happy with the experience our 3 children have had at Holy Rosary School in Edmonds, WA. The staff, teachers, community and parish are an incredible group, our children love going to school every day! We are proud of what they are achieving academically and feel that they will be well prepared for high school and beyond. We could not be happier here and would recommend this school wholeheartedly to all.

My younger daughter is completing 8th grade at Holy Rosary this year, completing our two child, 10 year journey! What a wonderful experience we've had in this supportive, academically challenging and faith-filled community. I will most remember the STEM-based focus of the middle grades (6 through 8), the emphasis on developing public speaking skills (at all grades), and the emphasis on kindness and respect for all. The teachers, staff, and leadership have provided us with many great memories. Thank you!

Holy Rosary School has been a great school for all of my children. Each child felt welcomed and included in their class. They really enjoyed the teachers and graduated as a well-rounded student and well-prepared for high school. This school has a Spanish and Music program from PK through 8th grade, as well as a STEM program from 1st through 8th Grade. Our experience was highly favorable.

Excellent school with dedicated hard working teachers and a loving community. My kindergartner has learned so much this year. As soon as I pick him up he shares about his day. Mostly about what he learned. The Kindergarten class with Mrs. Wachob and Mrs. Rash is one of the most efficient Kindergarten classes I have ever seen / experienced. The children are reading, writing, and doing science and math! They have a "Scientist of the Day" activity in which they are sent home with a science experiment to practice and present to their classmates. What a way to get started in science and public speaking! I couldn't be happier with Holy Rosary School! Thank you!!
