Queen of the Rosary Catholic Academy is making dramatic changes – just like its Williamsburg neighborhood.

Under the leadership of new princi- pal, James Anthony Daino, the school resides in a fully renovated, former high school building featuring:

– a multi-media center
- wired and wireless connectivity
- an art room
- a science laboratory
- SMART Boards
- a cafeteria
- and a morning assembly room There are a number of academic pro-

grams that further enhance the school: SuperKids reading program for the early childhood levels; Spanish is taught to all grades from nursery through eighth grade; grade levels from pre-k through eighth grade receive at least one art class a week by a trained art teacher.

Queen of the Rosary uses the pro- grams: Learn360 (K-8), BrainPop (5-8), Code.org (K-8) and Mathletics (3-8) to supplement and enhance the individual needs of each child.

The school also offers free Pre-K For All in concert with the city.

The school’s rigorous academic stan- dards have resulted in high school accept- ances to Brooklyn Latin, Brooklyn Tech, Christ the King Regional H.S., Cristo Rey, Dominican Academy, The Mary Louis Academy, Msgr. McClancy Memorial H.S., Archbishop Molloy, Notre Dame Academy, Regis H.S., Xavier H.S. and many others. High school scholarships totaling over $200,000 have been awarded to students over the past few years.

In addition, a full menu of after-school enrichment programs include sports, read- ing, arts and performing arts, which entice a significant portion of the student body to remain after school.

The school’s after-school program also allows working parents to let their children remain at school after hours, where they are provided with homework assistance, time to relax and time to interact with stu- dents from other grades.
