At Visitation Academy, we empower our students with tools to handle academic challenges as they develop and find their place in the world: critical thinking, Catholic values, and Salesian spirituality.
Thank you Rosanna Scotto for celebrating Catholic Schools.

Truly a wonderful gift. I was in second grade in 1970. So very grateful to the Sisters and our extraordinary lay teachers. If I recall, Sr. Virginia was my second grade teacher.
I was there but not in this pic.
Great Education Happy Memories
