Resurrection

My friend is starting to look for a different school for his child. The school does need more organization. Too many last minute requests and changes shows school lacks leadership and structure. Teachers work hard and the family atmosphere is great.

Resurrection School by far is a great learning place for my child or any child. I have been very happy with the quality of education my child has been recieving. The teachers are all approachable and committed to the educatiion of children. Children are being taught moral, values, and responsibility among academics. The principal is professiional and is understanding. The principal worked very hard to bring a brand new playground for the children, a new camera and security system, and our school is colorful with all the new murals. I highly recommend this school for any parent looking for a PreKinder to 8th grade.

My kids have always been in public school. But I noticed that my son was falling behind in his studies. I decided to put them at Resurrection and now I have noticed a vast improvement in both their academic studies and social skills. My kids were not happy about the change because they would not have their friends with them . But both have adapted well to the new school and made new friends. They are both now very involved in school activities during and after school. As a parent I am always aware of what's going on in school and in the classroom. The teachers are always pushing the students to do their best. The teachers are great role models for all students. Their is great discipline. The principle is very strict yet willing to work with you/kids. The school is very family oriented.

The students attending resurrection overall are happy at this school. To the students it is a second home. It is unfortunate that many families who's children attended Resurrection have decided to not return for the 2009/10 school year. Many families enrolled their children in other Catholic Schools, not due to financial reasons but due the inapproriateness and lack of professionalism of the schools principal. She apparently tends to make families feel uncomfortable, belittled, extends assistance and then makes the parents feel as if they are endebted to HER. The principals performance and arrogance has affected the Schools Parent Morale. Hopefully there will be some improvement in the near future. With the exception of the principal, it is a wonderful school for our children.

the principal is not doing here job at all but uther than that it is a very good school

Very pleased with the value at the school and quality of education, including discipline and faith based education. Fridays are formal dress with school Mass which my kids like! My children are performing great, 2 oldest graduated from this school and were accepted to the best Catholic high schools nearby. The school has an afterschool enrichment program, a full-day pre-K program, and for working parents, a daycare for kids to be supervised and do their homework until 6:00 pm. Communication is very good with periodic progress reports, regular weekly or byweekly Principal newsletters, she has an open door policy pushes for scholarships for needy families. We just were informed school received a $12K grant for new computers for computer lab! Parents can chose involvement in several fundraisers to reduce tuition, or can buy-out and pay slightly higher fees if working parents.

I am very happy with the quality of the academic program my child has recieved. The principal is approachable and available to speak with. My child can from a public school and I clearly see much better quality of education. I like that my child gets to go to mass every Friday. Overall I recommend this school.

The principal is never available. Parents are never informed.

I think that this school does not meet the quality of academic programs. They have no music program for the eighth graders and the eighth grade class has no art but they do have some good afterschool activities. There level of parent involvment is good but not in a good way. They charge parents at least 35 dollars just for not coming to a meeting also the children have to pay a quater to use the school phone.

A great place for kids to learn great academic and christian values. A good balance of academic programs and family activities are great, especially the monthly family nights.
