About This Cause

Holy Rosary Parish School is a Catholic school within the Catholic Diocese of Memphis and is an integral part of the parish ministry of Holy Rosary Church. Holy Rosary offers a co-educational experience for students in two-year-old preschool through grade eight. Located on Park Avenue in East Memphis, Holy Rosary serves students from West Tennessee and the surrounding area. Founded in 1954, Holy Rosary School opened its doors in September with four classrooms and a cafeteria. The school had six grades and 170 students that were taught by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, Kentucky. The school grew rapidly under the direction of Fr. J. William Wiley, first pastor of Holy Rosary Parish and Sr. Sheila Ann Madden, S.C.N., first principal of Holy Rosary School. Holy Rosary School provides a solid foundation in academics and faith based studies. When our students leave Holy Rosary their level of preparedness is evident by their many successes.
