Open House at Saint Ann School

Is your child ready for Kindergarten? Are you considering a move to a new school? If so, Saint Ann School cordially invites you to attend one of its January open houses. More than just a striking Cleveland Heights landmark, Saint Ann School is an institution that has effectively and impressively educated the youth of our city for over 90 years.

A diverse community of motivated learners, Saint Ann students are inspired to and regularly meet the challenges of a curriculum that stresses academic, social, and spiritual development. Thousands of commuters pass the imposing granite structure located at the corner of Coventry and Cedar roads everyday and may wonder what this “best kept secret in the Heights” has to offer.

It offers state-of-the-art science labs and a technology center. It provides wireless laptops for students and SMART Board technology in every classroom. It offers an enrichment program and National Honor Societies for the elementary and junior high grades. It offers proof of its standards of academic excellence with students who consistently score higher on the Iowa Test of basic skills than students from other Catholic schools in the Diocese of Cleveland. And last, but not least, 92% of its graduating eighth graders are accepted into their first-choice high school, including Saint Ignatius High School, Beaumont School, Gilmour Academy, University School, Laurel School, and Hathaway Brown.

Interested parents and students are encouraged to attend either of the following open houses to learn more about Saint Ann School and its academic excellence: Sunday, Jan. 25, 12:30-2:00 p.m. and Monday, Jan. 26, 8:30-10:00 a.m. For more information, call 216-932-4177 or go to http://saintann.us/.
