This school is very, very bad. You'll get bullied till you leave or until your parents bug the school enough. This school doesn't like bad publicity so if it's a really bad school make a review somewhere (best on Facebook) or tell your friends to tell their friends to tell their friends and so on and so forth. Also the teachers notice whispering but not EXTREMELY LOUD bullying.

Don't know why the other reviews are so negative. While there are some areas for improvement that the school can address, it is a fine learning institution to send a child too.

All this school cares about is the dress code and money for the church. Don’t send your daughters here if you want them to be independent. This school puts down women for having jobs instead of having families

I have had an absolute amazing experience and cannot have asked for a better school for my children. It has been a great part of our lives and my family is blessed to have had the opportunity to be a part of the St. Jude community.

My three children attend Saint Jude School. It is a great school, with exceptional faith formation, and a wonderful family environment.

I have been blessed to be able to send my daughter to Saint Jude Catholic School from Pre-K through 8th grade. Through the years, aside from Math and Science, she was taught love and respect for herself as well as others. Having her faith nurtured everyday has given her a solid foundation and inspires her to reach out, beyond herself to others in need, not only in our community but all over the world. My daughter is a well rounded, faith filled young lady who continues to thrive in high school because of the education she received at Saint Jude Catholic School. Saint Jude is a small school and each student is known by name by all the faculty and staff. Students are greeted each morning and dismissed each afternoon by the principal, assistant principal and pastor. Throughout the school day the children are loved and taught in creative ways by teachers who truly care about them. This family atmosphere makes Saint Jude the BEST school in Boca Raton.

Both of our children received an amazing education at Saint Jude Catholic School. We highly recommend this school if you are looking for a caring, loving, warm and Christ centered school for your children.

Saint Jude School is a warm, welcoming environment for both student and familystudents grow academically, socially, and spiritually. It is a small nurturing environment where everyone knows each other and students are encouraged to reach for the stars and is loving hand that picks them up should they fall - wouldn't send my child anywhere else for her education.There is also a preschool on premises that my friends rave about - The teachers are wonderful, kind and loving - I have seen the children and they look so happy

We have had an enriching experience at this school. Have we had concerns from time to time? - sure, but after reading some of the ridiculous comments below - we are shocked they are permitted to stay listed.The school is what we want for our child - Catholic, Organized, Loving, Structured, Disciplined, Academic, Family Oriented, Fair and Growing. We would highly recommend Saint Jude. We will be leaving soon due to Graduation but we will always remain part of this family. Go Saints!

My son is attending PK4 and I couldn't be happier with this school. My son loves his teachers and friends. Not only he is learning about math and reading but he is learning good manners, spirituality and some of the essential things in life like having jobs and visiting the doctor. It has been a great journey so far.

I have graduated from this school recently and the day I relieved my diploma was liberation! St. Jude had its pros and cons. It made my academic preformance increase amazingly. When I was in elementary school I got mainly B's and C's but when I transferred to St. Jude in middle school I starting getting straight A's! Some of the teachers were great but some teachers preferably the literature teacher there were pathetic! A good thing about St. Jude is that if there are any teachers who suck, they could get fired quite easily. I wouldn't reccomend St. Jude for a male student since the athletic program there is very stupid with no gym and used uniforms. The music program is also pathetic. The social scene at St. Jude is unpleasant. It's kind of easy to make friends but the population is very small cliques form like crazy. If you're not in a clique then people will recognize you as an outcast and just judge you. Gossip also spreads like wild fire among the students an even the parents! To make things worse, the guidance counselor is not ago source to solve your problems and she might even tell others confidential info about you. So if you want to come to St. Jude, I would think twice.

I graduated from this school last year (2013) and I can honestly say that is the best school around. I wasn't there since kindergarten but I felt so at home and grew to love the school, staff, and students so much. I miss it more than anything and I would never trade anything for my amazing memories and amazing friends I met at St Jude Catholic School.

I just love Saint Jude! I have moved my son from his former school to Saint Jude. He was in the 3s with Miss Meldrum and loved it from the first day on. Miss Meldrum is caring, playful and nurturing but also knows how to create a safe and respectable environment for our children. She organised so many fun activities for the kids... and for the parents! The rest of the preschool team is also amazing. Thanks to all of you!

St. Jude has done a great job with my kids. They have caring teachers and involved parents.

Three hour lunch breaks are the standard for those who run the school. Good luck scheduling a meeting with the administration if you have real business to conduct or concerns to address. They're always "Out to Lunch" at St. Jude.

To the 1-star below....."there cold not be a worst school"' "appaulling", "comming" - I don't know if it was such a good idea to take your kids out of such a great school with grammar like yours....my child has been at St. Jude's for years. The education is excellent, the sense of community is unique my child loves going to school at St. Jude's...

If you want your child to not only experience a top-notch education, but to learn self-discipline and religious values, this is the school. There is a real sense of community here - you will never get that from a public school. I highly recommend. Teachers here are very accessible and work incredibly hard. After-care program is excellent.
