Each semester of the school year our teachers accommodate student teachers from Seton Hall. One student who spent the spring semester in the 8th grade wrote the following thank you note. This is a first for any student teacher, and is well worth sharing!
This years camp will now have three separate weeks. The camp is open to evryone, the public as well. Skill level is not a concern, come out have fun, work on your game and enjoy the rest of the campers.

Our Lady of Sorrows School recognizes each child as a precious gift from God. Like snowflakes, no two children are exactly alike and no two children learn in exactly the same way.

You have entrusted us with the care of your children. We can think of no greater responsibility or more sacred of charges. We stand committed that your child(ren) will be engaged to explore, to discover, to think, to judge, to decide, to expand, to grow, to endure, to reach for the stars, but most of all to love. Therefore we fully recognize that without that spiritual dimension their final destiny with God cannot be realized.

Here at OLS we offer a challenging academic curriculum that is rich in the moral values and religious information your child will need to succeed in life. With plenty of personal attention, our school creates a safe and encouraging environment that challenges bright minds to explore their interests and discover the best in themselves, their classmates, and the world.
 
At the very foundation of the education we offer is a dedication to excellence. That's why Catholic elementary school students consistently score higher on national standardized tests than public or charter school counterparts. And 97% of Catholic school graduates eventually go on to attend college.
 
Here at OLS, our students are accepted into some of the area's finest private high schools and then the nation's most renowned universities.
 
OLS offers a positive, encouraging and safe environment where children can grow in body, mind, and spirit. From our Pre-K programs, designed for three and four-year olds through our K-8 programs, our caring, qualified teachers provide a strong, academic foundation.
