A+ For America - St.Rose
St.Roseis an A+ school for America because of our students. Many graduates of St.Rose have gone on to improve the planet with their faith and knowledge. Some graduates have successful businesses, others have become teachers some have gone into the medical field, in fact the first woman judge for Will County was a graduate of St.Rose!

Today the students at St.Rose have certain values instilled in them. These values are loyalty, trustworthiness, responsibility, and the list goes on and on. A student's faith is greatly increased when we attend this school. We are encouraged to voice our opinion, to choose right over wrong, and to stand up for what we believe is right. The teachers and faculty at St.Rose encourage us to be the best of our abilities. Our academics at St.Rose areset at high standards. Students here are expected to respect their own and othes right to learn, and students are expected to perform at their highest academic ability.

A student at St.Rose is being set up for success. Not just success in school, but success in life. With the values and life skills that St.Rose has instilled in me, I will move on to high school and college prepared for what life throws at me. I will have the choices to do what I want in life because of the valuable skills St.Rose has given me. These skills won't only benefit me, but others, depending on the career that I choose to fulfill. St.Rose is changing our world, one student at a time, making an A+ school for America.

"The students from St. Rose speak highly of their preparation for Joliet Catholic Academy. They feel especially strong in their preparation for English classes. St. Rose gave them a basic knowledge of the Catholic Faith for success with our religion classes. The transition to JCA was easy because of the solid basic foundation learned at St. Rose. The family environment at St. Rose helps them step into another family."

"It is evident to us at McNamara that students from St. Rose have already developed excellent study habits and have a high value for learning. The names of St. Rose students can be found throughout our Honor Roll lists. In addition, St. Rose graduates involve themselves in a variety of extra-curricular experiences often times ascending to leadership positions. These are characteristics, which are not only a testimony to St. Rose School but also are the cornerstones of the McNamara Difference which leads to productive young Christian men and women."

We are proud parents of three St. Rose Children.

When our oldest son was in second grade, we chose to switch out three children from public school to St. Rose School. The transition was quite simple. Our children and we considered the experience exciting and pleasurable. Since that fall, five years have passed and we reflect that this was one of the best decisions we have ever made.

We recognize the academic excellence at St. Rose School throughout each grade level, but especially appreciate the atypical benefits instilled at St. Rose. Each of our children has become a better public speaker than we could have imagined. Their friendships span all grade levels and their support for each other is outstanding. We see the benefits of programs such as “prayer pals”, a pairing of an older student with a younger student, when the students’ friendships and appreciation for one another extends beyond scheduled activities. After-school activities are a blessing in that every child is welcome to participate, and confidently performs well at each activity they choose to be involved in. We proudly recommend St. Rose School to our friends because we appreciate the education, friendships, social atmosphere, and religious foundation each student experiences. Our children are better people today because of St. Rose School.
