St. Agatha has been the best decision I’ve made for my son. Students are prepared for Highschool when they graduate. His teachers are genuinely invested in his academic success. I could not ask for a better place for my son.

I love this school, I have 2 boys and they love being here. They have learned a lot from the teachers and they are also nice and attentive to your child's needs.

most of the student when they graduate and move to high school they go directly to tutoring, they are not well prepared, I don't know what it is but they are facing a huge problem with students, as for the teachers for some reason they fired the well knowledge teachers and kept the bad ones, the extra curricular activities are non existing , as for sports sometimes they cannot even make a team, they recently hire some new teachers but for some reason they seem to be not graduated from an accredited schools.

Please, This school is a really BAD EXPERIENCE!! My family had really bad experience in this school. I agree with other parents that THE PRINCIPAL is intimating to everyone including her teachers. The school has a reasonably priced private Catholic school, but bad education and the PRINCIPAL,administration and teachers don't discipline their children FAIRLY. The Principal is very unprofessional person, she needs to show love for the children. PLEASE SAVE YOUR $$$$. This school needs a new administration to be better please for our family. SAD TO SAY BUT LOOK AT OTHER SCHOOLS. SAVE YOUR $$$$$.....

St. AAgatha is a great school! My children have attended this school and have gotten admitted to wonderful Catholic high schools and honor programs. I have my youngest at Saint Agatha and he could not be happier. The teachers are amazing and highly qualified. They are caring and friendly. The new administration is wonderful and has been a positive change for the school. The principal Mrs. Hernandez is approachable and friendly. The curriculum is rigorous and prepares the students very well. My children have developed many beautiful friendships throughout their years at St. A Agatha. There is a lot of parent involvement and a warm family environment. Look no further than St. Agatha school when deciding where to put your child.

I've been a parent at St. Agatha for several years. My children that have already graduated have been accepted into advanced scholar programs in their high schools of choice. I still have one child left there and she loves her school. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a school with a kind and caring Principal, office staff, and teachers who go the extra mile to help the kids. They have an excellent and demanding curriculum that prepares the kids to be successful in high school and in life.

This school is truly a blessing! Great teachers, administration, and office staff. Great environment for children. My daughter has learned so much in the last three years she has been there. Ms. Hernandez is a wonderful and caring principal.

Do your research before selecting St Agatha School. School grades have declined steadily over the past years. It could be rated as a "D" school . This change in performance coincided with a change in leadership at the school. In recent years, there has been high teacher turnover, especially in the Upper Elementary grades. Because of poor performance on standards-based assessments, and a failure to adequately blend their curriculum with catholic learning goals, academically is a disaster , the kids have no chance to survive when they transfer to high school, most teachers are not prepared to teach they spend the day texting.

Aftercare is terrible and administration is blindside. Too many family members working together. If you complain you out or force out of the school.

I have dealt with other private and public middle schools so I believe that I am qualified to make the comparison and provide a fair review. My child has been at St. Agatha since 6 grade and I can tell you that the only good thing about St. Agatha Middle School is the social aspect. Because it s a small school, the kids become very close and thus so do the parents. Academically it s a total DISASTER. The root of the problem is that the principal who is basically non-existent, except for the purpose of fund raising and other non-academic nonsense. The assistant principal is invisible. There are very few competent teachers most go to collect a paycheck at the end of the week. The office staff is rude, unhelpful and disorganized. The school does not demand academically from the kids. There are no book projects, no mandatory reading of classics, no computer based programs (i.e. MathXL) to help improve math and/or reading skills, just very academically relaxed. These have been three lost year for my child.

my daughter had a terrible experience with her 3rd grade teacher, the teacher is not kids friendly person at all. Also, once I forgot to paid my kid lunch account and they gave mi child bread with butter at lunch time. They are always asking for all type of donations, and they feed bread with butter a child because did not have lunch account balance. No one called me to let me know that my kid was going to have a piece of bread for lunch so I could stop by and pay. or take food for her.

All the school its great and amazing teachers and staff but the only big concern is that the security lady with blonde hair is very rude and doesnt have manners at all calling people bad names and something rude i fell very dissapointed and i think of children being at a catholic school this isnt what we think is right way to talk to the parents!

This is my first year at St. Agatha, as a PreK mom. I can truly say the school has been amazing so far. The teachers are so wonderful and loving. The staff and administration are great and truly show dedication to their profession daily. The way the school is run is just admiring. I look forward to many memories at this wonderful school!

As I get ready to wrap up another year here at St.Agatha school I found it necessary to take some time and share some of my feelings. if you are in search for placement I highly recommend you visit our school, I have been there for 6+ years and again was reminded what a great decision to place my youngest in PK3 as I did with my oldest. I could not say enough about the dynamic duo (Mrs.Diaz and Mrs.Betty) though their patience and love for what they do my daughter that came from a "home with grandma" setting in more than ready for PK4. The Administration I could not say enough about, from day one I have always been impressed by the fact that our Principal Mrs.Glass is always in the front to greet our children and give them and the parents a warm welcome. I am a happy SAS parent looking forward to many years ahead.

Great Experience!!! As my child get's ready to close her chapter in PK3, I'd like to share that although I am happy to see how much she has learned and therefore is well-prepared for other challenges... it is bittersweet! I feel that I was blessed by both, her PK3 teacher and Aide. I could not say enough about these two ladies... they are short for AMAZING and truly have " BIG hearts filled with love for little minds"... we will miss them!
