As a graduate of the school and older sister to a current 8th grade student, I personally can speak to how great a school OLP is. During my time there, I loved it. The teachers made me want to learn.

That, along with the amazing teachers I had at OLP and the activities I was involved with through the school prepared me for high school.

Many of the floors are dirty, and there used to be a hole in the wall in the seventh grade room. There are so many things left to explain.
