This is our first year at SAS. Our daughter is in 4K and I have been very impressed with the level of educational activities. She is writing and beginning to read with a little assistance. The after school program with fresh air in incredible. Each week there are science projects, dress up days, open play time, homework is done each day. I live the school and the programs. The new principle is doing a great job.

I thought this school was a perfect fit for our family. Yet, I noticed that there is a club like feel associated with this school. If you are not a part of this club expect your family and children to be singled out. Not to mention that the material being taught was below my child s abilities. This school seemed to have taught at the slowest learning rate of a particular child in the classroom. If your child is a quick learner and becomes board while waiting for the slower children to catch up this school isn t for you. Some of the office staff is also rude and always keep you waiting for an unreasonable amount of time before getting to you. This school also lost our tuition not once but twice! This is not the kind of environment that I want my children associated with. Beware of St. Aloyisus School

my daughter was in the third grade and i started to have doubts about the teachers teaching but my mind was changed last year and this year so far. she is doing alot better and the teachers are willing and understanding toward the students that are having troubles. i feel that as a teacher we need to help each and everyone of our students and not just think of it as job. we need to support our future both at home and school. i feel that as a parent paying for private school, our kids deserve the best.

This is a great school although they could do more with the athletics/extra-curricular department.

SAS has been a part of our family for years. I attend the school and now my child is attending. This school year has gotten off to a great start. I am thankful for his teachers.

This is our 6th year at SAS and we have been blessed to be a part of this school. Have nothing but high praise for the teachers, principal and staff who provide a loving, firm and safe environment. I too wish for more extracurricular activities like music/band and foreign language but my child has received a great foundation for learning.
