Hands down the best decision we’ve ever made for our family. Lial’s teachers and staff love your child like their own. Our girls have left confident, prepared, and ready to start their next educational journey.

Teachers and staff do their best to help each child individually. Students are empowered to learn independently and are very prepared for high school. Prayer is folded in as a normal part of life. We are so grateful for Lial!

If you are looking for a school that has a strong base in the Catholic religion you may be disappointed. My daughter was not prepared for her first communion at all! The Nuns treat the children like they have the plague. The kids are not permitted to attend mass in the Chapel because the Sisters are afraid of getting sick. I did not think I would see the day that Nuns would turn their backs on Gods children. It’s really sad!

This school has been the best decision we have ever made. My kids are loved, valued and respected for who they are. They are taught life skills, values, integrity along side of excellent academics! The teachers, administration, staff and volunteers are all loving and helpful. They truly love what they do and do it extremely well. So glad we found this community for our kids to grow and learn in!

My children have attended Lial for the past 5 years and it was the best decision we've ever made as parents for their education. Not only is the curriculum taught at their pace, it allows for the more advanced students to move forward and accept the challenges they need. The school community is welcoming and helpful to all new families. Kindness, respect and integrity are expressed for all students to model both inside and out of the school. We love this school and would recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing educational experience for their child!

Sr Pat needs to come back! It is just not the same.

Very much the type of private school that caters to the families with the most money and the most free time. Teachers are mostly great, as with any school. Administration, even with a complete overhaul recently, is not great at recognizing individual families’ needs. We were completelyIgnored after two different requests over the past two years. Their Covid response has been dismal - almost completely patent-driven and “let’s pray for safety” as an example. We wish could have kept our daughter home as others have done.

It is our first year, and we truly love Lial. Our daughter is blossoming in the Readiness classroom which uses the Montessori approach to learning, and our family has been wholly welcomed into the Lial community. The teachers and Sister Pat are amazing educators and our daughter is excited to go to school . They have neat opportunities to incorporate nature into the curriculum and the students are all so kind and polite, as well as the teachers and the Lial families. We truly feel at home!

Excellent! Especially for my son. It is perfect for boys who don't function well in traditional classrooms. We love that it is in oak openings region and all classes are frequently outside. Recess is so important!!!

We have had nothing but positive experiences at Lial. My kids have truly blossomed since we moved to the school a year and a half ago. We are so thankful for the staff and all the families who really make the school a family.

I can only speak about the readiness and primary programs at Lial, as that is all we have dealt with to date. First, let me explain that Lial has combined ages in classrooms. There is readiness which I would describe as a pre-K and kindergarten program, primary, which is 1st and 2nd grades, intermediate-3rd, 4th and 5th grades and middle school-6th, 7th and 8th grades. We have had great experiences at Lial. One thing I appreciate about Lial is that they are teaching the children life skills, particularly, social skills. They are taught confidence and kindness along with their academics. At drop off, in the mornings, I see the first child to the door holds the door for all those that arrive at the same time (common courtesy). When you pass a kid in the hall, they have been taught to say hello (common courtesy). Each of our children are appropriately challenged and progressing well. Children work at their own pace. In kindergarten, for example, one child may be working on addition and subtraction, while another may still be learning to recognize numbers and counting. We also love that the school has a small feel and the families are welcoming and kind.

Lial Catholic School has been the best decision for our family. Our children have benefitted greatly from the progressive learning style, as well as having a faith-based education. Our children excel in academics and also personal virtues. The atmosphere is very welcoming and family-like. We truly feel like we have input into our children's education. I love the many opportunities to volunteer and be a part of school activities. The teachers and staff are excellent. Lial is for everyone!

I have never been associated with a school that has better communication than Lial Catholic School. My son is progressing at his own pace and he loves his teachers. I could not be happier with our choice to send my Son to Lial. It really is such a special school.

My school is Lial and it an outstanding school for my children as well as myself and siblings as we all attended the school. The school is small enough that teachers can focus attention to students and that each student can progress forward at their own pace. The staff encourage parents to be a part of their childrens scholastic experience and if a parent has a concern to talk to the staff so that the issue can be resolved. Again, I feel that Lial is a terrific school for children to attend.
