This school has really gone downhill in the past two years. The emphasis has gone from quality education in a caring environment to 'How much money can we bring in?' Wealthy families are pandered to, and discipline issues with their children are overlooked. Academics are strong, teachers are caring and committed, but this wasn't enough. Class sizes are also ridiculously large for a private school.
For the most part, we have been very happy with this school. The parent involvement and sense of unity is terrific. Academically, the school is wonderful for an average to slightly above average student. It doesn't offer much to challenge the advanced student, or to help the struggling ones. Language arts, math and music are strong while science, art and foreign language are weak. It also seems to be very slightly lacking in the area of discipline. There are behaviors tolerated in the primary grades that I wouldn't expect to see in a private parochial school. Overall, though, the teachers and learning environment are wonderful and we are very happy with the school.
I have three children enrolled in the primary grades and have had nothing but a positve experinece. The teachers show large amounts of concern not only for the child's learning experience but also for the child's well being. Parent involvment is very high and very positive. Academics are good but more pronounced in reading and writing than in math and science. This is a wonderful school.
Our family has really enjoyed our learning experience at St. Michaels. Not only has my son received a sound academic start, but more importantly he has grown spiritually. The teachers are caring and inspiring. Parent involvement is high with the school motto reading, 'A family of families.' I could not agree more.
