In the late 1990′s the Catholic population in North Georgia tripled. In response to the overwhelming need for Catholic education, the Archdiocese built three new schools in Alpharetta, Roswell, and Tyrone. I have several friends who have children attending and they are very happy with the school. There is an application process and potentially a waiting list, so if you’re considering this school for your child, I would recommend you get in touch with the school well in advance.

Archbishop John Francis Donoghue named this school Queen of Angels Catholic School, with the accompanying motto: Ave Regina, Caeli et Terra. Translated from Latin it means “Hail Queen of Heaven and Earth.” The motto is taken from ancient hymns to the Blessed Virgin. The Queen of Angels Catholic School logo consists of twelve stars representing the twelve apostles. There is an “M” with an “R” in the second loop for “Regina.” The crown is symbolic of the Coronation of the Blessed Virgin and thus, her queenship.
