I would like to see a change in the way that things are run. For a small private school with not many students, the organization should be cleaner but in many cases it is not. During my time here I had a great time, but this was due to me finding a great group of friends along the way. I noticed that although the school is about sisterhood, many girls were left with no friends, some being to shy to try and the school did nothing. I would recommend that the school implement more fun activities for the students to grow together and for the counselors to address and help those in need of it.

Student are are able to create tight friendships that will last forever. Students are given much homework that will help students manage time better. Unfortunately, students have to rely on other resources many times in order to succeed in the classroom.

The past year at Rosary, under new leadership, the school has gone in a negative direction and sadly we can no longer recommend it.

Our daughter is a sophomore and we couldn't be happier with Rosary. We are confident she will be well prepared for college both academically and characterwise.
