Saint Catharine School has been a wonderful experience for all three of my children. My son was well prepared for the rigorous academics at Christian Brothers Academy. My two other children are thriving and love going to school. Saint Catharine School educates the whole child in faith, knowledge and service and the teachers educate with kindness and respect. As an alum of the school, I look back on fond memories from my time there. Highly recommend this wonderful school.

We transferred into St Catharine School after attending our local public school. As a parent who is deeply invested in my children’s education, SCS provides a traditional Catholic environment. The school isn’t beholden to state curriculum mandates and focuses on teacher led instruction with a mix of technology.While the school excels in many ways, there is always room for improvement. I have noticed since the shift in administration, there has been a considerable effort to improve curriculum especially math standards.

This school is a safe environment for your children. Only caters to students that have ability to learn in the main stream. This school has not got a strong Catholic identity but tries to cater to a Christian environment . Parents are involved day to day with everything . Not all teachers at the school are Catholic. misbehavior is not tolerated.

SCS has a wonderful sense of community and great supporting parents. The wonderful academics is only one of the many things happening there. There is a strong emphasis on the whole child - ethics, values, faith, service and empathy are just as important as grades. Much is expected of the students and they deliver beautifully. SCS is a hidden gem in today's crazy world.

Great school with a wonderful sense of community and focus on core values and spirituality. A very caring and involved group of parents. A principal who puts the students needs first. Thanks to parental contributions the school is a leader in use of technology throughout the school.

A really nice school with a great sense of community. The children are taught manners and values and the principal, while tough, truly cares for the students and wants the best for them. Some of the teachers are average, some outstanding.
