Why OLV?

We excel in:

• Catholic Identity
• Academic Excellence
• Special Community
• Parent & Parish Partnership
• Interpersonal and Leadership Skills

As you consider the option of OLV School, we think you will recognize an outstanding opportunity for Catholic education at its best. OLV has long been noted for its academic excellence, superior staff, small student/teacher ratio and well-rounded graduates, and this has been recognized by the United States Department of Education’s Blue Ribbon School of Excellence award. OLV has a strong Christian core, and you will find the school’s commitment to education, faith, and community to be deep and abiding.

OLV is blessed to have a dedicated and talented faculty striving to assist each child’s development to his/her fullest potential. In addition to classroom instructors, our faculty includes a librarian, as well as music, art, computer, and physical education instructors. All of our teachers have expertise in their fields, with over half holding master’s degrees. Many have more than five years of teaching experience, and some have more than ten years with Our Lady of Victory.

• Small classes mean that teachers know each student well and can help the student develop to his or her full potential.
• The family-like environment of the school means that no students are anonymous or forgotten. All children are appreciated. School families are networked and supportive.
• The close-knit faculty work together to provide an outstanding academic environment based on their in-depth knowledge of student abilities, parental aspirations, and high school expectations.
• OLV has a very safe environment.
• Students have many more opportunities to participate in activities and take leadership roles than in larger schools.
