  • My son graduated from OLHC and went on to be very successful. I like the staff there and Sister Patricia is the salt of the earth.

  • OLHC is a beacon of light in a dark city. This school and church has proven it's success by the students who currently attend. The teachers are dedicated and the families who send their children here (I am one) know the value of a Catholic education. The Mass here is a light in the darkness. I cannot say enough great things about OLHC! I hope OLHC will continue to provide Catholic education to the residents of East Orange for years to come. A parent with children in the school! God Bless.
