My son has attended this school from preK and is now in 8th grade. The teachers and staff are professional and dedicated. The quality of the education surpasses some of the charter schools (I've attended several of their orientations/tours). I've also seen first-hand that the school manages to challenge academically advanced children while providing amazing support/tutoring/intervention to children with special needs. The school population is diverse, supportive, and has become like a second family. I investigated many schools before placing my son here, and it was definitely the right choice. I consider this school a gem that has remained hidden for too many years.

My son has been at Saint Edward Catholic School for 4 years and I cannot sing it's praises enough. St. Edward has so much to offer. Affordable excellent education, loving school community, the best teachers who truly care about their students, a wonderful diverse atmosphere, convenient downtown location, etc. The list is endless. I am forever grateful for this school and everything it's done for my child. If you are looking for a GREAT school Saint Edward Catholic School is it.

My great-nephew attends here. He has had a fantastic experience. He has had great teachers with small classes. He looks forward to school every day. We recommended this school to my niece when she was looking for a school for him because we knew several of the teachers and how much they loved working at the school.

Really good. The small classes and the number of students makes this school really good for students to best interact with their teacher.

Both of my sons attended St. Edward from K through 8th grade. I highly recommend it to any parent that is seeking a small, family-oriented, Christian setting. It is inexpensive as compared to the other Catholic and private schools in town. Having served on the school board for two terms and having participated in the accreditation process for ANSAA, I can attest that their standardized test scores are consistently above average. The teachers are dedicated and strive to help all students achieve success. They have computer, PE, music, Spanish, art, and library as enrichment classes. They also have a resource program and after-school tutoring program that are free. Like any organization, you get what you put into it, so I highly encourage parents to get involved.

Saint Edward is a wonderful school that has been around for 125 years. The teachers and staff offer the students a nurturing environment for learning. They truly care for our children. This 'small school environment' has as much to offer your children as a large school but small enough to 'care' about each and every student.

St. Edward's is an excellent school. The teachers and principal are very caring and give students the individualized attention that they all need. We have had two children at St. Edwards, beginning in 1998 - and we certainly would not have kept them here if we didn't think the school was doing an exceptional job of educating our kids. Our oldest one is now a sophomore in high school and is in the top 5% of his class! I would certainly recommend St. Edward's to everyone!

Saint Edward's is a wonderful school. I have one child currently attending and one at Mount Saint Mary. I feel the school has done a wonderful job preparing my child both academically and spiritually. St. Edwards has a very family feel to it. Everyone knows each other and looks out for each others children. We are so happy that we chose St Edwards for not only our school but our church also.

I would not recommend this school to anyone. My children have been going to school there for 3 years, and it is going down hill. There are way to many students there that should not be in a private school. St. Edwards keeps accepting students with high special needs or behavior problems. Many of the students have come from other schools that they either got kicked out of or got asked to leave. I would not recommend your child attending this school. If your child is an average student, then he or she will not get the time from a teacher that he or she needs. Gifted students just float on by because they can do it themselves. The lower end kids or behavorial kids get all of the time. This is just not right. Send them to a different school.
