Our Lady Queen of Angels Catholic Elementary School, commonly referred to as Queen of Angels School, is a Catholic elementary school located in the East Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. The school was founded by the parish friars in 1892 and was originally staffed by the Sisters of St. Agnes.
Established by these faith-filled leaders, OLQA has anchored its East Harlem community for generations. OLQA prides itself on creating an inclusive environment that respects and celebrates diversity. We offer excellent academics in a safe environment and a values-based education that encourages our students to use their talents in the service of others.
We seek to partner with families to foster a strong school community that promotes mutual respect, personal responsibility, and service to others. We strive to empower our students to strengthen their faith, develop their talents and abilities, and embrace a life-long passion for learning. We do so to prepare them to become successful, contributing members of their local and global communities.
