“Learning two languages at Risen Christ has helped us appreciate our roots, especially the language and culture of our parents and grandparents. It gave us the opportunity to embrace friends from different cultures. A bilingual education led us to a broader vision of the world.” 

“I am a mother of three children. Risen Christ helped them a lot, academically. Now Ashley, the oldest, who is 19 years old, is in college – a first year student at the University of St. Thomas. Without the help of Risen Christ and the donors, it would not be possible for my children to be studying in this school.”

“I volunteer in the second grade Spanish classroom. Seeing these children advance in both languages is so amazing. They are much more advanced in both Spanish and English than I was at that age without a dual language program. The native English speakers and the native Spanish speakers – they are helping each other become bilingual. Being bilingual is going to open so many doors for these students.”

“Risen Christ taught me the importance of being able to formulate a plan to navigate through life. The school allows for each child to be tended to on an individual level, providing a strong foundation for students to continue on and make meaningful contributions to society.”
