I felt the homework was not beneficial to the students whatsoever. The voweletics offered wasn't effective for my son but there wasn't many options.

They help students individually based on what is convenient for them, which can sometimes include your young children to miss recess which is critical for kids at that age.
Posted: December 22, 2019
They implement no contact orders for young kids if they aren't getting along.

When I attended Catholic schools throughout my education Lourdes was always a great school, with the current leadership this is by far the worst experience my son and I have gone through.

Our family loves Lourdes. Our first child attends Lourdes and has flourished. We love the combination of education, faith, and community. We can't wait to send our second child there next year. We recommend this school anyone!

This is a wonderful school that provides excellent instruction in a faith based environment. Having a child with a reading disability isnt easy, but this school has helped us as a family and has made our kid feel welcome and no different from any other kid.

We have loved our experience at Lourdes. With 7 years under our belt and at least 14 more years before our youngest graduates, we're extremely happy with the decision to invest in our children's education at Lourdes. Lourdes is a family - if you're looking to be a part of a community of parents and teachers that cares for not only great education, but instilling morals and values, I highly recommend Lourdes Catholic School. I know that my kids are building a strong foundation for their future.

Our family has loved being a part of the Lourdes community. The staff members as well as other parents watch out for the students. We have had many positive experiences at Lourdes including a rich faith-based learning curriculum.

This school is great with the exception that they will not expell bullies dispite their consequence chart which is compartmentalized by child not by incident. It's really unfortunate as I know they will be losing enrollments as a result.

Teachers are very nice and my 4 yr boy loves to go to school. The school offers after school program at pretty reasonable cost as well. I appreciate their programs and services for kids!

Lourdes is a wonderful school for our children. They are getting a quality education in a great environment. The small class sizes are conducive to a lot of personal attention from their teachers. The teachers and staff are committed to the school and the students. Our children feel loved and valued there and look forward to going to school. They are also learning about their faith each day in school which is giving them a great spiritual base for life.

I know first hand about this GREAT school, because I was a student here and now my children are students also. My children are building a strong foundation in life academically, spiritually and morally at Lourdes Catholic School. The teachers and principal go above and beyond for the students. They are a great group of dedicated staff members. My children get an EXCELLENT education at this school where Jesus Christ is welcome and ever present. :)

Lourdes is a special community of faith and family. Small class sizes, academic excellence, personal attention to each student, and a kind and loving atmosphere are just a few reasons we love Lourdes. Most importantly, the commitment to strong Catholic values is at the forefront. We would recommend Lourdes to any family looking for a loving environment for their child.

Christian values, courteous students, dedicated staff, and top notch education - all of these things set Lourdes apart from the rest and make it the best school to send your students to!

Teachers at Lourdes go above and beyond what anyone would expect. They come early, stay late, and give one-on-one assistance when needed.

Christian values and Christ-centered education are integral to the culture of this school. There is no better place to send my children.

Great school with small class sizes. My daughter has a class of 12 and would have had a class of 28 if she went to a public school. The cost was cheaper then I was paying for daycare so it was very affordable. The teachers and administrative staff have amazing communication with parents and are always looking out for their students. I was only going to send my daughter there for a few years to get a head start but I plan to keep her in the school for as long as possible now.

Lourdes Catholic School is the perfect choice for a faith based education. Religion is taught in all classroom, students attend weekly Mass, Spanish is offered in all grade levels, Voweletics is offered as the reading program, strong academics, small class sizes, strong sports program, many extra-curricular activites, and strong parental involvement are just a few reasons to chose this school.

We currently have 3 kids at Lourdes, with our 4th just finishing 9th grade (attended Lourdes through 8th). We have been extremely happy with Lourdes for many reasons. The academics are strong (average test scores at Lourdes show this), class sizes are small, faculty are very caring and hard working, and there is a strong focus on faith. I would recommend Lourdes to anyone!

My child just finished kindergarten at Lourdes and loved it! They offer art, PE,and music twice a week along with computer, library, Spanish, guidance, and Mass once a week. Can you believe that's all in kindergarten?! They have a great phonics program, and staff to work with students who are struggling, accelerated, and starting next year- a special education teacher! My child loved going to school each day. It's a great school!

I have had four kids go through Lourdes Catholic School with the youngest just finishing 7th grade. Her older sister is a junior in High School and is excelling. Her two older brothers excelled in High School and our now doing the same in College. Lourdes did a great job preparing my kids for the next levels of their education. Lourdes also provided a great atmosphere not only to learn but to grow and mature. The investment we made to send out jids to Lourdes was worth every penny.

I have a child who is an accelerated learner and one that struggles quite a bit. With its creative and seasoned teachers, small class sizes, and supportive atmosphere, Lourdes is able to accommodate both children beautifully- proven with standardized test score far above national, state and even community scores. Its a warm, welcoming, inclusive school that provides my children with an exceptional education, varied extracurricular activities and a firm moral foundation.

This is such a great school!!! I am so happy to have my kids at Lourdes!!

Academic excellence, strong teachers, lots of opportunities for the kids. It is a very supportive environment for our children.

Th school has a tremendous track record for academics. Their state scores outshine the local public schools. They have small class sizes and dedicated staff. They did just undergo a change in principal, which is sad, because Katie Selden was an excellent academic leader and put the school on the right track. They have a specific preschool for 5 year old kids, who are just a bit too young for kindergarten, but don't want to repeat Pre-K. The first grade teaching team is superb. It's good school, and good community to be a part of.

My children attend this school and we love it. The academics are excellent, teachers are caring, and it's a strong faith-based education.

My son is currently in the preschool program at Lourdes and we have been happy with the school so far. As a graduate of a different Catholic elementary school in Davenport, I found Lourdes to be much more welcoming than others. The marketing coordinator is resourceful and the teachers are very helpful. We just moved back to the Quad Cities after being gone for 2 years and are very happy with our decision to have our son attend Lourdes. They are very accomadating with their Little Lancer House which is a blessing to parents. Most of us nowadays have dual working parents and I am relieved that my son is cared for while I am away teaching other children by such wonderful, dedicated staff.
