[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have much first hand experience with Our Lady of Lourdes but what I've heard about the school is the exact opposite of what the above poster has written. In fact, I've heard fabulous things about the gym teacher who also runs a much-loved summer camp program. I also understand that the parish is one of the more socio-economically diverse ones in the area. On the issue of Catholicity -- I don't know anything about the teachers but the parish itself is considered one of the more traditional ones in the area. The parish has sponsored a novena in advance of the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, with homilies given by priests who are among the best preachers I've ever heard (with Dominicans, maybe even an Opus Dei priest or two). [/quote] The parish is traditional, though I have been unimpressed with the Masses that I have attended because of the delivery of the homilies. On the plus side it has a very active community. I have not heard good things about the school. I have a friend who's DD goes there and she echos the PP in terms of who runs the school. [/quote]
