Our Lady of Mt. Carmel – Many reasons to like the school
I have been a student at Mt. Carmel since Pre-Kinder. There are many reasons why I like OLMC. For instance: excellent teachers, nice classmates, fun events, going to church and virtues. But overall because I feel God’s love everywhere, throughout the whole school.
They are truly FAMILY!
All 3 of our children have attended Blessed Sacrament Parish School from the time they turned 2 and could start preschool. We have a son who graduated in 2014 and is now a senior at St. Augustine High School, a daughter who is a current 8th grader with ambitions to attend OLP in the fall and a Kindergartner!! There have been many changes over the years, but one thing remains and that is the wonderful Catholic and family foundation at BSPS. Most of our very best friends, parents and children, we met at BSPS. Our Kindergartner’s God parents are parents we met at BSPS when our older children were younger – they are truly family. I feel very strongly that my children have and continue to receive an education based in faith and are being taught by teachers who truly love them and want the best for them as individuals. Our children have strong morals, are kind people and have a strong foundation for making good choices in life and for being leaders as they continue to grow and develop.
Mr. Oscar Plasencia, Parent, St. Rose of Lima School
When my daughter was reprimanded at her public school for writing about the times she prayed the Rosary during Lent, my wife and I decided it was time to send our kids to Catholic school. With the way our (public) education system is headed it is more important than ever to send our children to Catholic school, where they can receive an education centered on Christ. For us, we knew this would be a financial challenge but we had managed. This year it seemed an impossibility to continue to send our children to Catholic school. Our prayers were answered with the support we received from Blessing Our Future. We are able to continue sending our kids to Catholic school, where their faith can flourish, their minds can grow, and their values are accepted.
Small Class Sizes
The small class sizes have allowed my boys to gain a level of academic confidence that they could not get in larger classes. Not only is the faith-based learning teaching my boys fundamental Catholic teachings and solid morals but also it lets them get a sense of family, community, and belonging.
We Felt at Home
We transferred to BSPS from a school that we were with for 7 years. We were worried that it would be difficult to develop new relationships and feel at home like we did before. Shortly after transferring mid year, other families began to reach out to us to invite us to events and outings. We were treated so warmly by the rest of the families that we felt at home very soon after the transfer. Not only have my children been welcomed with open arms by their peers but the quality of education they receive is much higher than what we experienced in the past. I highly recommend this school to all prospective families.
