Our Students Student Body: Students come to Our Mother of Sorrows or Saint Ignatius of Loyola from a great variety of cultural, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds. Some students are second or third generation alumni, while others are first generation immigrants. Three out of four live with one parent or a non parent family member. Over 65% qualify for free or reduced price lunch. Some walk to school, while others are driven over half an hour. One factor that unites our children and school families is a belief in the value and life-changing importance of a quality Catholic education. Student Accomplishments: We congratulate our alumni for having made great accomplishments! If you are an alumni, please stay in touch! - Over 85% of OMS and SI alumni graduate from high school in four years. - Approximately 80% of OMS and SI graduates attend private or Catholic high schools. - 94% of graduates from Archdiocese of Philadelphia high schools attend college, compared to 25% of people from the surrounding community. |
