Visitation prides itself on the reputation of preparing students spiritually, academically, and emotionally for success in future endeavors. As a Catholic elementary school, serving 765 students in Pre K-3 through 8th grade, Visitation integrates the teachings of the Catholic Church with academic principles in developing each unique child. Visitation is also dedicated to teaching children with varied learning abilities and has been at the forefront in recognizing and accommodating children with different learning styles. The school's philosophy and mission emphasizes meeting individual needs of students in an environment that stresses Christian values.

    In recent years, Visitation has renovated and made many improvements to its physical plant. The addition of two computer labs, wiring of the campus for Internet, a reading and writing lab for students with special needs, a science lab, landscaped prayer garden, and a black wrought iron fence have enhanced not only the school's appearance in the community, but have also helped to bring our curriculum into the 21st century.

    With an eye toward the future, a multi-purpose building has been constructed for the ever-growing Westbank population. This new facility includes a much needed gymnasium, auditorium, early childhood facility, additional classrooms and meeting rooms for the benefit of the school as well as the Visitation Church Parish. 

    In addition, Visitation recently received accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). Accredited schools are schools in motion. An accredited school uses the process of accreditation to stimulate and drive improvement.
