I am a past parent and alumni of St. Gregory The Great School. It is a wonderful school with an amazing faculty! It is equipped with state-of- the-art technology, security/cameras and a strong academic program. The school is well-known for its family atmosphere and nurturing environment. Father Dunn, Pastor of St. Gregory The Great Church works very closely with the principal to promote spiritual growth and guidance so the children can thrive both academically and spiritually.
