I am so happy we chose Saint Patrick's school for our children. The kindness and compassion of the entire staff makes St. Pat's a home away from home. The entire staff goes above and beyond to make your children comfortable in their environment all while promoting independence, problem solving skills, team work, respect and integrity. Each child is treated as an individual, not a number. Teachers are easy to talk to and truly care about the well being of each student. The school offers a very strong academic program, as well as after school activities such as band, chess, basketball, tennis, golf, Chess and Newspaper to name a few. St. Pat's also offers a state of the art STREAM Lab , a newly redesigned library, as well as before and after school care. It is truly one big family with the children and the school's best interest at heart. It is an investment but one so worth making for the future of your children. I couldn't imagine being anywhere else.

There are so many wonderful attributes of St. Patrick’s school. The faculty, administration and staff are wonderful and have a genuine love for the work they do. The children are not only taught academic skills, but are also led by example to be kind, respectful, and confident. St. Patrick’s School is a truly special place. It is a family. There is a very strong sense of community, and it can be felt the minute you walk in the door. Parents of former graduates often still participate in long-standing events and fundraisers because of their true love for this school. This school has so much to offer academically and spiritually, has a state of the art STREAM lab, sports programs, before and after-school care options, music, art, clubs (Newspaper, Chess, etc), and so much more. It is well worth the investment on so many levels.

New leadership, great facilities, new technology, a safe / family atmosphere, and a quality education by caring and attentive teachers all combine to make St. Patrick's a great choice. Our girls have benefited tremendously from the overall experience. The cherry on the top is the Catholic values instilled in the children. This is a huge benefit to raising good kids in a challenging era. Highly recommend.

I decided to enroll our children in St. Patrick's School after beginning their education in the public school system. To say that I am more than pleased with my decision would be an understatement. The teachers are top notch and truly enjoy their jobs. Most spend their own time before or after school helping students who need additional review. They teach the core curriculum but also realize that sometimes it's just as important to teach the "old" way too. I love that everyone seems to know everyone by name , it's like being in one big family. There are other things we love about St. Pat's too! The Catholic values instilled upon the children are just as important to us as is the respect that is taught and apparent when you visit the school. One walk around the school and you will be greeted by children with a smile and usually a student who will hold the door open for you. Little things like that are what sets St. Pat's apart and what makes our school so special!

We love St. Patrick's School. The teachers and staff truly care about the spiritual and academic development of their students. The kids are taught to work hard at their studies and to be good people. If you want to see for yourself what an amazing and special place it is -- all you have to do is come visit and see for yourself why our children are so happy and become the top students in high school.

My child's school is St Patricks of Yorktown which is a huge disappointment. And amazingly this site erases bad reviews and keeps good reviews I have made copies of previous reviews. Everything that this school stands for is ridiculous but no point in warning anyone because this site will erase negative reviews. Good luck with your child if they attend this school. God Bless

As an 8th grader who is graduating this year, I can proudly say that St. Patrick's has molded me into a person who is confident to go out into the world and achieve big things. The academics at St. Pat's are superb and I feel a large advantage over students from public schools and other catholic schools. The teachers are the best and most compassionate you will find anywhere, while still instituting strict Catholic morals. No matter what kind of day it is, they always have the drive to help a student. While the school is known especially for Language Arts and writing skills that far exceeds other schools, St Pats has great math, science, and Social Studies programs. There are daily religion classes with priests on faculty. There is also AP math and a Spanish program. The school is on a beautiful campus with 4 buildings, a church, outdoor stations of the cross, playgrounds, and athletic fields. We have a library, computer lab, science lab, art room and renovated gym. I would recommend those looking at schools for their kids to give them the same privilege I had of a St. Patrick's School, where we are all one big family.

St Patrick's has the strongest academics in catholic schools in New York. The teachers are very caring and attentive an are always willing to help. The experience doesn't end at 2:30, however. There are various clubs and sports to take part in. There is a great Spanish program. There is a computer lab, science lab, library, music room, art room, and a newly renovated gymnasium and auditorium. The performing arts are spectacular. There is also smart board and Promethian technology. I would highly recommend st pats!

My children love St Patricks. In addition to strong academics, the school has many "extras" such as computer, language, plays, art, etc. It also has many after school activities (i.e., band, basketball, volleyball, family events). The children receive a quality education with christian values.

St Patrick's is a wonderful school with high academic standards. Graduates of the 8th grade class have been well prepared for high school with many receiving multiple offers of academic scholarships. More importantly, though, morals and the Catholic faith are instilled in the students of St. Pat's. The school has a warm atmosphere and the Parent's Association plans many family events throughout the year. The teachers, faculty and staff at the school take an interest in each and every child. My children and I couldn't be happier!

The school is not too bad but the parents are...a recent incident at recess...where the kids were playing a game and there was name calling then a little pushing was involved...parents fake the kid was hurt and next thing you know the other kid got in trouble for this pitty incident...note the kid is a honor student

Both my children went to St Patrick's and the caring showed by the teachers in both academic and personal dealings was excellent. The school maintains a strong academic program and strives to meet the needs of each and every student. I have recommended St Patrick's to others and these parents were also pleased with the school. Ask to spend a day there before enrolling if there are any concerns.
