I’ve been a part of the St. Christopher community for 30 years, and my kids are now going here. We love it, and we have no complaints! All 4 of my children are different, yet they’ve all done great with each passing year. I recommend SCS to everyone!

The principal and staff at St. Christopher are magnificant. They offer assistance for students with learning disbilities. They are most empathetic , kind, loving, caring. You will NEVER find another principal with the compassion as well and longevity of being a leader as the principcal at this school. The teachers have been there for many many years. There is a waiting list to attend this school. It has SO much to offer a family be it a married family or a single parent and you don't necessarily need to be a catholic to attend this school. Any child would be accepted as an individual and have the most that education has to offer at this school , they also offer a very good summer camp program as well as tutors after school. They offer before school care, after school care and a variety of extra curricular activities . You can t shake a stick at this school, its a phenominal school .

My daughter was bullied while attending this school.. The staff was unsympathetic and even rude.

St. Christopher is school founded and maintained on the ideals of a true Catholic school. There have been 4 generations of our family that have attended and all have fond memories. Currently my son and daughter attend and both have made great realationships and strides in their education.

It is true what others are saying about expecting parents to teach their kids at home. I would get notes telling me to work on things my child is having trouble with. Well, I have been out of school for quite a while and don't remember alot of things, so I can't help, nor can I afford a tutor after paying the tuition. If you pay a large tuition to have a school teach your child, why do they expect me to do it. Then they think parents aren't involved if they don't help their children with homework. We are involved with our children, however, if we just don't remember the knowledge to help our children? We shouldn't be put in that position. Parents have full time jobs to pay for tuition, then have to spend hours trying to help our children with homework because teachers didn't explain it well enough in class? Also, they are very strict and give out demerits for every little thing. Many kids don't have enough time to go to their lockers and make it to class on time. Demerit. Trouble getting your locker open. Demerit. The bus gets to school early and many kids end up missing the bus because the bus can leave minutes after the bell rings and then we have to pay aftercare.
