It was a second home I knew a lot of the Sister and they were great. It is a great school it has grown with the new technology.

Greatly dissappointed in this school. There is a lack of supervision and discipline both inside and outside the classroom. Social skills are not taught in the classroom, which is a must for small children. I disagree with the comment that this school teaches the whole child. Part of a teachers 'job' is to instill the love of learning in children. This school seems to have the opposite effect. If a child is not learning the way 'we' teach, then maybe we should teach the way they learn. Communication lines are closed and little information is given on specifics. This school lacks many of the programs other schools in the area offer (public & private). Staff seems friendly enough in the beginning, but become downright nasty if you question their techniques or lack of judgement, blaming the child(ren) instead.

Althought they say parent involvement is encouraged, it seems to be more rejected. We also didn't find the teachers or principal to be very understanding about anything that's outside their realm. The principal and teachers seem nice enough in the beginning, but the 'sales pitch' is very misleading. The curriculum seems to be typical of other schools (public and private) in the area. You'd be well advised to look elsewhere.

I agree with the other comments about lack of experience, discipline, supervision, etc. I don't understand how this school gets a reputation for quality (many of the other parents I talked with feel the same way). Extremely disappointed. Look elsewhere for a quality education, structure, and a safe environment for your child.
