Pre k is horrible. The children are out of control. They bully the teachers. Spit at the teachers and others. The staff is not concerned about anything happening in pre k. The parents are contacted and they seem to ignore what their child is doing. I don’t understand why this is allowed to continue. Many pre k children are kicking teachers and other children. This all gets reported to the staff and parents. Teachers are coming home with black and blue legs and spit all over their clothes. How can the staff of this school allow this?

My daughter has had a wonderful experience at this school. The teachers are dedicated to each and every child. The test scores far surpass other local schools. It Is a home away from home

We like the school a lot, just wish kids could do their homework on the computers, instead of carrying those heavy backpacks. Sometimes I feel like my daughter will break in half under all that weight. The school needs security as well! A little renovation wouldn't hurt.

My daughter has been in this school since Nursery. They do an amazing job. The teachers are winderful, they continue to add technology and clubs. My daughter loves the drama club. Very safe nurturing environment

+ The level of education is very high+ The teachers and administration are excellent, they really care about the kids and it shows.- The school's facilities are old and it needs to be updated. HVAC system needs cleaning.- Nepotism is slightly apparent in the school.- Lack of programs for the kids (not their fault as funding is limited)- No playground. No running during recess. Discipline is overly strict.

This is a great school. They really care about the whole student. They also offer a number of after school activities like drama club and glee club. My child is so excited to take 2 regents in 8th grade. I think it is great that they offer the opportunity to take the Earth Science Regents as well as the Common Core Algebra Regents.

I had my child in this school for 2 years and when we took my child out she left knowing exactly what she did when she first started that school. In my opinion the curriculum is horrible, and teachers need more training. The teachers in this school look like they are miserable!! At the begining some parents told me that the teachers told the principal what to do. I really didnt believe that, but after certain concerns through the years with our child that were brought up to the principals attention, i saw that what some parents had said was so true.. I would absolutly not recommened this school for any child. It is very expensive and all the do is ask for money. They want parents to volunteer there time in the school and if you dont you get charged for not donating your time to them. Now my question is if i dont work then i cant pay your tuition.So how about getting parents that dont have a job to volunteer there time to the school. You are also forced to sell candy and if you dont you also get charged for not selling them. My opinion this school is a joke and this is why alot of catholic schools are going under!!
