33 SOUTH AVENUE NEW CANAAN, CT WWW.SASNCCT.ORG FOLLOW US 203.966.0786 I believe St. Aloysius gave my children the foundation and security to go out into the world and be able to handle any situation handed to them. I see them going through life making great choices and being able to manage through any struggles that may come their way. They are confident young adults that continue to succeed every day personally, spiritually and academically. This all began at St. Aloysius. - Katherine, Parent of Current & Graduated Students

We were particularly drawn to the impressive Kindergarten program. The atmosphere was nurturing, fun, and impressively academic. The children were taught accountability, independence, and love of our Catholic faith from the first day. They are able to develop relationships with students from grades 1-8 through playground interactions, school mass, after school programs, and our unique buddy system. While there is a common faith, the overall community offers some healthy diversity with a multitude of perspectives from other towns and demographics. We found that St. Aloysius appropriately challenged our children academically and they were very well prepared when it was time to move on to new schools. - Gretchen, Parent of Current & Graduated Students

The children learn to be kind to one another: And it’s not that they learn to be kind just for the sake of being kind, they learn to be kind because Jesus asks us to love one another. I think there a vast difference between being taught to be kind just because “it’s the right thing to do”, and being taught to be kind, because it’s what Jesus asks of us. - Katie, Current Parent

I have been a student here since Kindergarten, and have seen this school flourish through the years. This school provides an environment of learning where resources are abundant. Our faculty is very devoted and inspiring. Our teachers are funny, kind, and attentive to each student's needs. This makes learning fun while achieving academic excellence. Going back to Kindergarten, I have some amazing memories from my years here. In Kindergarten, we had numerous shows and events (that included our families) to look forward to including the Family Feast, the Advent pageant, the spring show and of course, graduation, where my mom cried a river. - Andrew, 8th Grade Class of 2018
