We have fond memories of our time at the church & school. Our sons have gone on and become successful, productive members of society with strong morals, ethics and values . This would not be possible without the guidance and education they received at St. Ambrose.

Our child has been attending St. Ambrose since Pre-K 3 and is now in 3rd Grade. In our 5 years with the school, we have had great experiences with the teachers and staff. It is a small school, which I believe results in better relationships between the teachers, students and parents. Communication with teachers and the front office is easy, and they have always been prompt and clear in their responses. I was so grateful during the pandemic that our child was enrolled here during that challenging time. They adapted quickly to the ever changing landscape and communicated often. Her learning experience, even while distance learning, was wonderful and there was no significant deficit as she moved through higher grades.

St. Ambrose is a small school with a BIG heart. The students, parents, staff, and Principal make St. Ambrose feel like a family and a home away from home for many of us.I have worked at St. Ambrose for 6 years as the Physical Education Teacher and Director of Athletics. In my 6 years I have coached our sports teams, volunteered at events such as our Carnival and Fish Fry, and been the MC and costume judge for our Halloween Trunk or Treat. I've done a million other things too!Classes at St. Ambrose are small so I have the pleasure of getting to know each and every student in our school. I also get to meet and say hello to their parents, grandparents, and pets in the carline each morning and afternoon!The teachers and staff, or my co-workers, are caring and easy to work with. They've also become great friends and we share a mutual passion for what we do and the students we teach!Our Principal is the best in the business. She is truly a pleasure to work for and always makes us feel appreciated. She keeps our students and school safe, supports us as educators, and always goes above and beyond.I could probably work at plenty of other schools but the people at St. Ambrose are what bring me back each year. I’ve taught some of the most incredible students, made lasting friendships with our staff and parents, and have so many wonderful memories. St. Ambrose is home for me and truly is a small school with a BIG heart!

Saint Ambrose is a wonderful community! All three of my boys graduated from Saint Ambrose and thrived here both emotionally and academically. The small school environment allows for the teachers, staff and administration to get to know each and every student. Each class including specials utilize technology in their curriculum.

This school is like a family! From PreK thru 8th grade, the kids and teachers all know each other. The guidance counselor meets with the children to teach them lessons to help them socially and the teachers use 21st century technology to teach. Our family HIGHLY recommends this school if you are looking to be a positive contributor to the community!

Saint Ambrose Catholic School In Deerfield Florida is exceptional! It possesses all the required qualities to be classified as one of the best schools to enroll your children. The students are well rounded in many aspects: spiritual, social, physical, emotional, and the learning environment is very positive.Concerning the Special Education for students with disabilities, i don't know if the school provides such service; if yes, it won't be different from the general education, thus Administration, Teachers, and Staff are fantastic!That God continue to bless the school!

Great Catholic education, where values are taught, and everyone is like family. Teachers are amazing and the principal has everyone's best interest at hand. Love it hear my daughter has been here since kindergarten and just a few years to go. My son just started and looking forward to the next 8 years.

St. Ambrose School has taken great strides in the past year. The energy the new principal has brought has motivated the teachers and students alike. The school has had a complete face lift this past year both physically and technically.

My child has been attending St. Ambrose for about six years and overall we've been very happy with the school and education. I like that it's a small school and there's a lot of one on one attention. I also think the new Principal Dodge has been a shot of positive energy and is working hard to improve the school with regards to teachers, academics and technology. I would recommend St. Ambrose to any parent looking for a small private school where their child can get a great education with one on one attention and a strong sense of community.

St Ambrose School has gone through many changes in the past 2 years. The enrollment is up, parents and students are happy and the staff is certified. It is a shame that employees that have left the school are bitter. There are always two sides to the story and then the truth. Come see St Ambrose, make your own decision to see if this is the right place for your child. I think you will find out that it is.

St. Ambrose School-hides serious issues regarding truth!!! Music guy in the church who has been there forever should be out! He bullied a person out of the school and out of a job! Sad it happened. Right beside him is the Eighth Grade teacher who has been there for over 30 years!!!! She put him up to fighting her battle for her!!!!! She should have been fired two years ago when she took it upon herself to "help" a student "win" an award by knowingly changing another teacher's grades. Is this right? Not according to the State Education Department! To say nothing..and make it a surprise at the ceremony with parents there! No respect!~ And she was hired back with a raise...the Superintendent for the Arch knowingly knew this and agreed that it was wrong! :( But did not do anything about it...yes, people have been talking.... After so many hardships were placed upon some caring individuals who wanted the best for the students!!!! If you lost your job and your home, and were mis-treated and bullied, you would be happy about what this school dished out...but, the newbies in the school...don't know.. and the others will remain silent about the outcome...

What a shame that unhappy staff members have to write things about a school that they are no longer employed at. To bring up gossip about students only hurts them. I think that St Ambrose is a the best kept secret in Deerfield Beach. The teachers are caring and working hard to challenge the students. The administration has gone through some positive changes and is working to bring the school up to the 21st century with 1 to 1 computers. I think everyone is entitled to their opinion but I always remember my moms words if you cannot say anything nice say nothing at all. I think that St Ambrose is a great school and I am proud and honored to be part of it.
