Teacher Responses

"Connelly has been like an extension of my family. 30 years of love and enjoyment and being able to use my God given talents to make a difference."
Mrs. Henry, Connelly Athletic Director

"Connelly allowed me four more years of childhood in high school."
Pamela Toomey, Connelly Alumna and Art Department Chair

"Connelly is indeed a very caring, creative, and uplifting place. Excellence is expected from each student, and appropriately the students expect excellence from each instructor - our music courses, for example, provide excellent performance opportunities but also sound academic background and theoretical exploration. The students were responsible for this growth, they took responsibility for their own education - it's a pleasure to be a part of it."
Brian Dehn, Music Instructor
