St. Anne School

My child attends here, and I can tell you the academics programs are stellar. The school is about 3/4 asian and 1/4 caucasion. I do wish they were a bit more diverse, but it still is one of the best catholic schools, with high test scores in the city. Low class size too. Kindergarten classes are at 22 students with 2 teachers per class. The kids test very well here. Teachers demand excellence and most if not all students seem to love it here. Hidden gem, but not so much anymore.

excellent curriculum. Best in building a great academic foundation. The students are respectable and the teachers are great. They are strict but they are also fun. The children are happy here because the St. Anne school community is strong.

My 3 star rating is a requirement to post, not indicative of my experience. Currently, I'm looking for a school for my young Pre-K. I'm really interested in evaluating the St. Anne School graduate. Are you prepared for high school, that is to say, are graduates entering in a low, mid or top tier level; such as in math...still in algebra (8th grade subject) or entering into freshman year with geometry? Do you, the student feel that you've received an education that has best prepared you for this new level of competition? Did you take outside supplemental studies to better prepare you for high school? If so, would you have suffered w/o it? I noticed many praises coming from parents who still have children in the school. Does this come from satisfied parents who's children have achieved high marks at St. Anne? Could your praises be premature? Is the quality of a St. Anne "A" (grade) equivalent to its peers? Also considering St. Cecilia, St. Brendan & St. Gabriel.

My children have been well educated here at St. Anne. They have a very strong Jr. High and the teachers are terrific. Mrs. Meek and Ms. Ferrari are wonderful and caring teachers. Sr. Rosan is an excellent English teacher with so many wonderful ideas. This school also has a resource teacher by the name of Claudine Hallisy. She is a very caring teacher and has helped my child tremendously with algebra. Parents and students respect and love all the teachers and are grateful to them for all they have done.

My son is graduating this year and St. Anne's has been a great experience ! The jr. high teachers all strive to make your child the best they can be and the kids are very prepared to move on to high school. The jr. high teachers are very supportive in every way. These 4 teachers run like a well oiled machine !

There are a lot of great qualities in this school. The teachers, staff, principal, and their overall pholosophy are well established over the years of experience. The dedication of the parents and the continuous education opportunity given by the principal to his teachers are just the best. The school's pholosophy is whole child first with a little more emphasis in academics. Some teachers may seem old school on the apparence, and, I don't agree with the previous comment. In my child's class, the whole class was given the chance to take out the trash on rotating basis. I thought this was a great way for my child to learn to become a responsible, helpful, (no matter how small or dirty the chore is.) and down to earth person.

The resource teachers at St. Anne are excellent. Claudine Hallisy and Sister Katie are kind to the students they work with and go to great lengths to see that their students get the professional help they need. St. Anne's students are lucky to have them.

St. Anne's has an excellent English program. The teachers are very well versed in this department. The social studies, math, and science curriculum is excellent as well. The only drawback is that some teachers have a very 'old school' way of disciplining kids (i.e. writing 100 sentences of the same line, or picking up trash outside, etc.)
