It is the policy of Our Lady of Lourdes School to make every effort to meet the educational, spiritual and social needs of all students who seek a Catholic education at our school. Every effort will be made to welcome applicants to our school while ensuring that all students will receive adequate attention and excellent instruction.
The following priorities will be used to accept students to Our Lady of Lourdes School when there are a limited number of available seats in any classroom:
Members of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish
Siblings of current students
