Wouldn’t recommend to anyone who wants to grow socially or emotionally. You will be coloring and talking about your feeling 24/7 and will not be prepared for the real world. If I didn’t know any better I would think it was a elementary school. I also wouldn’t recommend to anyone who has beliefs of their own and doesn’t plan on conforming to their liberal ways. Which is extremely ironic considering they preach that they want the students to be “pioneers of change” which is stated in their Mission Statement. Don’t get me wrong, I have no problem with people being liberal however, I do have a problem with being scolded and looked down upon by the administration for not supporting the LGBTQ community and not wanting to be a feminist who “hates all men.” Don’t get me wrong, I think people can love whoever they want however, I am certainly not going to make LGBTQ posters during the school day. And yet again, this is astounding considering in their Mission Statement it states that they are “guided by the Catholic identity.” Lastly, I would like to point out that the entire staff and website is phony. All the “amazing” clubs that are listed, only about 5 of them are actually offered (pre-covid). The only activity that they actually have is Sports Night which is absolutely horrific and is clearly only catered to the girls that dance. I rather homeschool my daughter than send her their. Overall, don’t waste your time, money and patience!

OLMA is an amazing school with a beautiful campus, gentle, loving staff, and impressive facilities. My daughter has been supported since day one and now is doing pre college courses at Columbia University. They are very respectful for diversity and still seriously focused on keeping the catholic faith very strong. I could go on and on about this special place. May God bless these people.

It looks absolutely beautiful with its grandness. My sisters get there and they love it. I’m going there next year. They tell me it’s a really good school and they are always prepared for things and they always teach clearly so that you can understand. I’m definitely going there next year!
