Excellent teachers, new principal seems trying to improve. Supportive staff

I recommend the program and the school regularly. The staff at this school are truly great.

As a parent of 2 children in this school I have nothing but great things to say about it. Very family oriented, very caring and dedicated staff. My kids love going to school.

I am an alumna of St Rita's and have chosen to send my young children there, as well. There are a few things I LOVED about the school as a child that are still important to me now. The first is preparedness for higher education. After successfully completing high school (Horlick), I attended UWM and graduated with a BA in English. I credit St Rita's with fostering my love of reading and writing, which has helped me to gain the skills necessary in many different job markets. Another thing I really appreciated as a student was that I got to be in a class with +/- 20 other awesome kids who continued on with me from year to year. Our graduating class was its own little family. I am still in contact with many of my friends from St Rita's! We were all invested in seeing each other succeed and helping in any way we could. There were a LOT of tears at graduation knowing that we would never all be together again. Had I known then that we would still be in touch almost 20 years later, I would have felt great. Knowing that my daughter (and later, my son) will have this same experience is overwhelmingly reassuring to me.Finally, St Rita's is a Catholic Parish invested in providing a Catholic education. It makes me happy to know my child is learning about our faith, attending mass at school weekly, and growing in God. I truly believe that the values instilled at St Rita's are a big reason why all the children get along so well.This is a true community, a family. I think St Rita's has some of the BEST kids in Racine attending school and mass. Since we have enrolled our kids here, I've always been impressed with how the older kids treat the younger ones. Everyone is kind, considerate, and invested in the best future for their peers. This school is everything we could have hoped for. It aligns with our core beliefs. It's providing a solid educational and spiritual foundation that our children will build on for the rest of their lives. We are so proud to be part of the St Rita's family!

Great school, committed to technology and diversity. Wonderful principal and teachers. A great presence in the neighborhood.
