St Christopher’s is a small, close-knit nurturing school. Teachers are passionate about seeing their students succeed. They are great about sharing moments of pride they see within your child – their good behaviors and achievements; and they know the importance of getting the parents involved should an issue arise, and do it in a very respectful, approachable manner. Students are well-rounded, technology STEM is incorporated in their studies along with enrichment classes. I highly recommend St Christopher School!

I attended Saint Christopher’s from pre-k through 8th grade. I loved the school and I am still close friends with all my friends since kindergarten. The teachers were excellent as well as the Principal. The school will make you and your family feel at home. I would recommend 10/10 times to send your child to this school.

I attended St. Christopher’s School from Pre-K 3 to 8th grade. It is a great school where you get a great education. The work load prepares you for high school. It has a family atmosphere and the faculty is very kind. I highly recommend St. Christopher School.

This is my son’s first year attending St. Christopher’s School and both him and myself love it! My son is overwhelmed with excitement to go to school every morning and each day when he gets home says he had, “THE BEST DAY EVER!” All of the teachers/assistants/staff, and especially the Principal, have made the transition for my son so easy and the learning so enjoyable. In addition, it has also been extremely pleasant to receive such a warm welcome from the community and I am so excited to continue to be a part of it.

I sent my children to this school because of the strong leadership. I had 3 children in the same grade, and the teachers always treated them as individuals. If there was ever a problem with one of the kids, it was dealt with and put in the past. In a day where kids grow up not knowing their own neighbors, St. Christopher’s provided a true community for my children. They were more than well prepared for high school, and are thriving. I won’t say the school was perfect, but I’m not sure of any that are. I would highly recommend it.

My experience at the school was great. The teachers and principle were great. It was like a second home. When I started 9th grade, I knew how do do things most students didn't. I went there with my siblings and we all loved it.

I sent my five children to St. Christopher and loved every minute of it. They were there for 10 years and we were all so sad when they graduated. Being there like being home for my kids. The sense of community is great. They are one big family. The principal and teachers are wonderful. My kids are in high school now and were so well prepared for the work. They received a top-notch education. I had 2 kids that needed extra support and I couldn't believe how their iesp was followed. They received every service needed. It was amazing. I recommend this school to anyone that wants their child to be loved and respected.

I sent my three children to St. Christopher School and felt like they were well prepared for high school. It is a close knit community and I was very happy with the teachers, too.

Terrible: poor education, bullying by teachers and the principal, poor communication with parents, picking their favorite students...

Bad because they try to make their way out of everything

As a staff member, I believe it is an excellent school. The level of attention, care and professionalism is unwavering. The environment is welcoming and the children look forward to coming to school everyday. The UPK program establishes a strong and fundamental foundation for the children and in addition, offers a nutritional delicious lunch at no charge . I am extremely fortunate to work in this school and would recommend it to ALL.

I had a truly wonderful experience at this school. I graduated years ago and still look back at my time here fondly. The teachers were excellent. I have learned so much from each of them. I could tell that they really cared about what they were teaching and about their students. I met some of my best friends at this school, and I know that they are friendships that will last a lifetime. I felt a great sense of community at St. Christopher's.

I really love the education my children are receiving at St. Christopher's. This school is family oriented and definitely all about the education of its students. The entire school is using technology to enhance learning. My youngest is using online websites in school and then completing assignments on them at home. My eldest has a gmail account monitored by the teacher where assignments are created on googledocs and shared with other students to help one another. The atmosphere of the school is happy no matter what time of the day you walk in. I love this school.

As a staff member, I can tell you it is a warm and caring place to send your child, and from a parents perspective I can tell you that I chose to send my four children here. They received an excellent education. I couldn't have made a better decision. Choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions you can make. St. Christophers school provides the perfect foundation to grow, to learn, and to make lasting friendships.

I feel so fortunate to be a teacher at St. Christopher's. It is like no other school out there. Our pastor, Fr. Joe, and our principal, Mrs. Falabella, have created a family environment where all care for and support each other. The children in our school are greeted with a smile by our principal each morning. We have an extremely caring and hard-working teaching staff. The kids are at the heart of everything we do, and we strive to give them every opportunity to succeed, learn, and grow. I love that the school updated the security system this year. A monitor in the office allows the staff to view all entrances to the building. What's more important than having peace of mind when you drop your children off at school? I highly recommend this great place to be to any family looking for a Catholic school.

As a professional educator who works for the Department of Education and travels from Brooklyn once a week to coach an after school activity, I can truly say that St.Christopher's School is a amazing place with a culture of learning and kindness embodied in all of it's students, teachers, and Principal. Having observed and worked at other Parochial and Department of Education schools, this school leads the way in providing services and personalized attention to students and their families. If I was a parent I would definitely send my child here.
