  “Our story with AMBS began in 2017 when Sophia attended the Little Blessings Prep Cottage here for Pre-K2. From the very first day we knew we had made the right decision. We felt comfortable that she was safe, cared for, and being given a warm and age appropriate first school experience at an early age. This experience remained consistent throughout Pre-K 3 and 4, during which time the Academy received national recognition as a Blue Ribbon School of Excellence.
  From our own experiences, and now through the experiences of our daughter, we can stand here and say with full confidence that the benefits of a Catholic school education are immeasurable. It is the type of education that gives an academic head start to those who receive it while not sacrificing the social and emotional experiences and growth that are so critical for children.
  This is precisely the type of education provided at the Academy of the Most Blessed Sacrament. Each day, students walk into a nurturing environment where they can grow and thrive through challenging curriculum, an abundance of supplemental programs and extra curriculars, and a strong sense of community, all of which are grounded in the tenets of the faith and the Church.
  We have also had the privilege of observing and meeting the middle school students at AMBS. Their mature, respectful, and nurturing demeanors are everything we hope to watch our daughter grow into in the years to come.
  There are times when it can be difficult to put into words how to describe something very special or why we feel the way we do. For us, this is not one of those times. In fact, it is quite easy to convey to you what makes this school and Church community so incredibly unique and beautiful.
  Every day, from her time in Pre-K2 continuing until now in 3rd grade, Sophia walks into a warm, welcoming, and safe environment where she is completely comfortable knowing that she is loved and cared for. The teachers, administrators, and staff at AMBS are a superior group of individuals. Not only are they masters of their crafts, they have hearts that seem to have been intentionally made to love and work with children of all ages. They are role models of kindness, hard work, and deep faith.
  At AMBS the entire student body is full of excitement and enthusiasm to actively participate in the many clubs, teams, fundraisers, spirit days, service projects, holidays, dances, and programs that are offered within these beautifully decorated walls. Students are being equipped with the tools that they will need to thrive and succeed once they leave these halls and go out into the real world - while still embracing the simple pleasures of childhood and the magic of growing up in a Catholic school environment. Simply stated, for our family, as well as many other families, AMBS is an extension of our homes - our first foundations.
  I’d like to leave you with a simple image. Every morning, this little girl happily skips into the front doors at drop off and walks out of her classroom smiling at dismissal. She, like her fellow classmates, is genuinely happy.
  What could be more important than a happy child?
  Come see for yourselves what makes AMBS a wonderful place to attend school each day. Come and see the blessing that is the Academy of the Most Blessed Sacrament.”
  
  The Vertucci Family
- Frustrated with how our district was dealing with providing education during this past year, our family began searching for a new school for our sixth grade son. We found more than a school for him at the Academy of the Most Blessed Sacrament.
  
  We found a loving, nurturing community of students, educators and staff. The faith based environment provided here was just what we were looking for to help our child grow and develop. Thank you to AMBS for welcoming our child into your family.
  
  Sincerely,

  Since the 1st time we walked and toured AMBS, we knew we found the right place for our family. The balance between faith, academics and fun activities made it the best choice for our son, and now we are looking forward to our daughter’s next chapter. Coming in the Fall she will be joining the AMBS family, and we couldn’t be happier!
  
  The Restivo Family
- AMBS School is a very warm, caring, safe, close-knit, dynamic and robust learning community. The students are guided by passionate, altruistic and dedicated faculty who are always excited about their work and energized by what they do every day with the students. The faculty views each student as having a unique potential and encourages them to pursue their goals. They would go the extra mile to assist with after school help sessions if needed. The faculty and staff are very responsive and diligent in working closely with parents on any issue a student may have.
  
  Alongside the faculty and staff is an amazing, devoted and hands-on MBS Parish Pastor, who is passionate about the spiritual well-being of the students. His focus on engaging and ensuring that the students are rooted in their catholic faith is very heartwarming and admired. Along with that are the opportunities and advantages a close-knit AMBS community provides for the family and kids each day, for which we are truly appreciative. The amazing School Parent Board is fully engaged with the school and frequently organizes fundraisers to support the school as well as fun activities to enrich the social life of the students.
  
  Not only does the faculty ensure that the students excel academically and are prepared for life after AMBS, but they instill a level of discipline that fosters good character, mutual respect, love and kindness among the students and staff. In addition, through various well-structured and ad-hoc service projects, the students are taught and encouraged to willingly serve, give selflessly and invest in the lives of others within the school, in a wider community and even internationally.
  
  AMBS did provide my daughter, who graduated from AMBS, the confidence and the guard rails for her to be socially, academically, spiritually, emotionally and physically prepared to succeed and thrive in any environment. My son is currently in middle school. He just enjoys the teacher-student relationships, loves the environment and all that the school has to offer, and doing excellent. We are satisfied with the overall focus of the school!

  Class of 2020; 2023
- This year proudly marks our fifth year being a part of the Academy of the Most Blessed Sacrament family. We have been very impressed with all that AMBS has offered our boys with their teachers, staff, and curriculum.
  
  Since Pre-Kindergarten, our boys have been welcomed into the school’s warm and inviting environment, which has allowed them to comfortably grow into eager learners. Due to the small class sizes, teachers have been able to make one-on-one connections with the students, and our children have been able to develop long-lasting friendships with their peers. Its faith-filled Catholic curriculum fosters upstanding moral values that allow my boys to grow into respectful adolescents who we are proud of.
  
  Being a former public school teacher, I have seen firsthand the everyday policies that are enforced in public schools and they are unmatched to anything offered at AMBS.
  The way my boys are turning out serves as a testament to an AMBS education, and we look forward to seeing them continue their journey with the school for years to come.
  Thank you for all that you do!
  
  Sincerely,
  Nancy Mugan
