My daughter started K0 (3 year old program) in September (during COVID). The school has done a phenomenal job. The communication with K0 teachers has been so impressive. Any concern I have, I will send an email get a quick response. They do such a great job with the children, I have been so impressed! I was so nervous with my daughter starting school, since she had never been to school before and this being such a tough year, but so far they have done a remarkable job with keeping our children safe and happy during these tough times. If you are thinking of sending your child to this school, don’t think twice. You will love the community feel this school has!

I cannot say enough great things about this school. They have an amazing focus on academics but also enrich children in other areas with extra curricular activities that include dance, basketball, lego and book clubs, and more. I can't imagine my children would receive a more well rounded education elsewhere. The community surrounding the school is just as great. We have made lifelong friends with other families. An extremely high number of children test into exam schools no problem and attend high schools that include Latin, Latin Academy, and Roxbury Latin.

I have a daughter at St T's and my son went on to BLS when he left St T's. This school was the only choice for us. Not only was it our neighborhood school, it was the best choice for our family. They have the curriculum, the teachers, the families, the extra curricular activities and the community that any family would find welcoming. I know that my kids have always been in a safe happy place every day we dropped them off and they have made friends for life at this school. Both children have and are continuing to get the best education they can.

My daughter will be entering 3rd grade, my son 6th grade this coming year. Our experience has been fantastic. We chose this school for its strong foundation in academics as well as the religious aspect. We went to Catholic schools and St. Theresa's provides my kids with the strong fundamentals they will practice throughout their lives. The teachers are great and really care about each individual in their class. I am glad to see my kids happy when I drop them off at school, they look forward to being there with their friends. We live in Dedham and the sense of community at our school is overwhelming! From the events held at school, basketball, everyone pitches in we always come together as a great community. My kids fit, we fit, it is just right!

As of the 2012 - 2013 school year, St. Theresa School will be a ECP (Age 3) - Grade 6 Elementary School. St. Theresa has an amazing staff of teachers and administrative staff. St. Theresa's school is fortunate enough to have expectional families who make up our St. T's community.

My son has been at St. Theresa's for seven years now. September 2012 will start his last year there. I am going to be heartbroken when he has to leave. I have never felt more safe and confident every day that I drop him off there. The sense of community in the school is amazing. It is wonderful to see parents completely involved with their children regarding education. The school has been doing a lot to keep up and surpass other schools with their curriculum. I feel very confident that he is getting the type of education that is the foundation for great things in his future. I have nothing but great things to say about the experiences my family has had with St. Theresa School. The support that was offered to us when it was needed was something I will never forget.

My two daughters go to St. Theresa School and it is excellent for them both. The school is great with academics and with socializing. Every student is welcome and is able to fit in with the other children. St. Theresa school makes sure all children are treated fairly and they give disipine if they need and that really teaches that student a lesson. Also St. Theresa get students prepared for other schools with excellence. The students at St. Theresa's are excepted to wonderful schools. Such as Boston Latin School, Boston Latin Academy, Nobles and Greenough, Southfield School, Roxbury Latin, Ursline, Mount Alvernia, CM, Belmont Hill also other schools as well. I went to Saint Theresa as a young girl as well and I am a very happy person

St. Theresa School really needs to modernize and hire new administration and faculty. They are way too far behind the times. The principal is against new ideas or only takes them from certain parents. They have allowed bullying to go on. I would not recommend this school to anyone . The class sizes are way too big in k1 and k2 because the principal will not hire aides. Theteachers are very accommodating and nice people overall. You can see that they are not listened to either.
