Our Lady of Angels School

Our Lady of Angels Catholic School educates preschool through eighth grade with an average number of 425 students under the authority of the Diocese of Cleveland. Our Lady of Angels School exists to provide an education rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ where Catholic doctrine and values, as well as academic excellence prepare each student for a life of faith, service and integrity.

This year our theme is “Rejoice always.  Pray without ceasing.  In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus!”  Children at OLA have the opportunity to participate in mass weekly as well as prayer services throughout the school year.  In addition to the standard academic curriculum, religion is taught daily and all classes are infused with the values and beliefs rooted in the Catholic faith.  Our Lady of Angels School welcomes students of all faith backgrounds.  We take part in the Cleveland Scholarship Program and enroll children from Cleveland as well as its surrounding suburbs.  Please contact our principal, Mrs. Kathy Krupar, at kkrupar@olangels.org  if you are interested in more information about Our Lady of Angels School.
