The school has been an anchor in the south Minneapolis community for a few decades, changing many lives in the process. The school is a hidden gem.

The school offers a safe environment and the teachers are great communicating with students.

This school is one of the worst catholic schools that I have ever been to. I used to be a student here and begged my parents to go to another school. Since I graduated I was so happy to not be in this school anymore. People bullied me because I was black and called be racist stuff. The staff that works here and any parent thinks that this school is "the best school in the twin cities" WHEN IT ISN'T!!!! The discipline is bad and give strikes for no reason. If you don't know what strikes are you get strikes when you do something bad like hit, bad behiavor, etc

Best private school in the urban Minneapolis community. I would enroll any future children of mine here, once again. AMAZING School Counselor, Jane Keple, does incredible work with students and families. Lots of volunteer opportunities with the school and chances to be involved.

I was very excited to send my child to Risen Christ. I now regret putting my child through this torture. Racial bullying is not only tolerated but is enforced by at least 1 teacher. I have spoken numerous times to the staff and principle with zero change. Watching my child go from someone excited to go to school and love learning, to a child who cries and begs to go to another school. Risen Christ has lost so many great teachers in the last 3 years. I wish I had switched my child then.
