I am forever grateful I made the decision to send my son to St. Jerome. The teachers get to know each child and their unique styles. My son struggled academically the first few yrs due to learning disabilities. The teachers and administrators helped to create a unique plan and creative adaptive techniques. Each semester his test scores and retention improved. They know him personally, which is a huge advantage a small school and low teacher student ratio can provide. The focus is progress based pin on individual level.I am thrilled with the progress I have seen in my son, academically, spiritually, and personally. The strength of character of the students and staff is unlike any I have seen at an elementary level school!

St Jerome is an amazing school with small class sizes. The student teacher ratio is about 15:1. The teachers are very caring and commited to helping each student reach there full potential. There are limitless possibilities for parent involvement. The faculty know each and every student by there first name and know where they belong. St jerome is like a big extension of our own family. The student are very respectful of each other and adults. The variety of specialties is amazing for a small school. There is music, art and French. There is computer and library too. There are special ed services available for those students who need it too. My children love to go to school! They have lots of opportunity for sports too, such as; swimming,soccer, softball, basketball, volleyball, baseball and track. The kids in the younger grades get prayer buddies and reading buddies depending on the grade level. It is an amazing school and the best decision we have ever made for our kids and our family.
