Our experience has been similar to the prior review. Teachers are good. Administration is a bit rude and inflexible with working parents. Our child left her lunch the first week of school at the daycare. Nervous about having to ride two buses to get to school, he left his lunchbox behind. Instead of calling one of us at work,when we got home (after work) we had a nasty message from school admin because she thought we forgot to send her with a packed lunch. It's just not a very welcoming feeling for working parents. We've had a few other incedents like that. Again, teachers are very good and we're content with the academic program, but we plan to move our child to public school for a more diverse and welcoming environment. Schools need to be welcoming to kids and parents. SMOY made us feel like we don't belong.
Unfortunately the administration is running this school into the ground. The teachers in grades k-4 are awesome. The curriculum is great if your child is a little more advanced and unfortunately they do not offer much when it comes to those kids that might need a little extra help in a certain area. Our kids have been there for the last 6 years, next year we are switching them to public school. Hopefully if St. Margaret's gets a new priest, he will understand the importance of being a little more involved in the school's activities and will be encouraged to seek new administration.
