About Our School


General Information

St. Ambrose Parish and School were established in 1947 at the request of Bishop James Griffin. The school, which consisted of 135 founding students, opened in August of that year with the direction and leadership of the late Father Andrew Robinson and three Ursuline Sisters. The enrollment of the school increased steadily until 1979, making it necessary to build a new school in 1957, to add four classrooms in 1964, and to add even more classrooms in 1977 when the new Church was being built. In 1986 a fire in the original parish plant resulted in the sale of that property and the construction of five additional classrooms.  

St. Ambrose is a wonderful school with an excellent religious education and academic program.  Our students do very well in high school, often qualifying for honors programs and upper level computer classes.  We are very proud of the achievements of our staff and students.
