A local Catholic school that prides itself on providing a challenging education in a nurturing environment to children in grades K-8 will host several transfer and kindergarten open houses for families in late January and early February.
The school will host Elementary School Open Houses for Pre-K to 8th grade students and families at its Elementary School Campus, 5040 St. Joseph’s Road, Coopersburg, on Thursday, Feb. 4 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. and Sunday, Feb. 7 from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m.
Prospective families and transfers are welcome at all of these information sessions.
Programs/qualifications that help set St. Mike’s apart will be discussed, including the school’s recently-adopted 1:1 iPad initiative, which provides tablets to all students in K-8.
Other qualities which set St. Michael the Archangel apart include:
- Its Pennsylvania-certified faculty, many of whom hold graduate degrees
