The only classical Catholic option in Spokane for pre-school-8! This school knows who they are and implements the curriculum beautifully. The Catholic faith is integrated throughout all subjects, there is no watering down as we have experienced in other "catholic" schools. The teachers and administration are phenomenal.

So glad we found this school when the rest of the world was losing its mind! The leadership has done an amazing job at building community and the move to a solid "Catholic Classical" curriculum was the best decision they could have made!! One of my sons was reading at a 3rd grade level at the beginning of his 6th grade year. The teacher was able to give him the necessary attention because the class sizes are reasonable. He was able to read at grade level by the end of the year. Truly amazing!!I cannot speak highly enough of this school and recommend it to everyone that cares about the "whole person" your child is becoming.

My only regret is that I didn't pull her out of public school sooner. St. Charles is a nurturing and supportive environment for children.

Any school that fires its three most senior teachers just days before the new school year begins needs to look at how it approaches compassion, kindness, bullying and character. Children see this modeling behavior.

Parents, please look into how this school treats their present and past teachers. Having good teachers for your child is important. Having Administration and Father being honest and respectful towards the teachers is important. Not much said about how Honest this school can be. The best kindergarten teacher had taught there for 25 years. She was the first kindergarten teacher to help teach your child to make the correct sound to the letter. She was the teacher that really focused on the catholic faith for your child. She was the teacher that stayed late after school making sure the classroom was clean for your child. She was the teacher that took the time to make sure they were dressed appropriately for the weather. She was the teacher that gave everyone a good choice note, and those are a big deal for any child.... how is it that she was the teacher that also got let go, 3 weeks before school starts.... for NO reason? Please explain!! Oh, and she wanst the only one 3 more teachers got let go as well... They told her, its because of to low of teacher and school funding? Also, Low enrollment? And today they just hired a new kindergarten teacher??? Wow.... just saying.... thats is NOT ok. Thats a taste of descrimination!! Parents?? I wouldnt watch out for the reputation that is being labeled on this school now. It can very well get labeled on to you... Not very Catholic School like!! This school is money hungry. 3 Families that have invested tons of time and money are leaving St. Charles because of this issue. Please dont be afraid to ask the school priest, whats is his future plan for the school...?? With families and teachers leaving and good solid teachers being let go for no reason is what kind of start for St. Charles. Who next on the choping block... just makes you wonder

Not a place I would recommend. Which I had kept my children at Assumption. Now one is in public school and the other is in a charter school.

St. Charles is not afraid to think outside the box to get your child the quality education they deserve! Technology is a must these days and St. Charles has a full computer lab for kids plus computers for the classrooms. St. Charles educates the whole student not just academics, it's a wonderful place for kids to thrive. Go talk to the Principal and ask how St Charles test scores stack up against local public schools!
