This is our first year at St. Paul School. Our children love St. Paul's and we have been very pleased as well. The curriculum is challenging and the teachers really care about their jobs and the students. I love the fact parents are involved, which is very important. It feels like a community, the families are very friendly. It's nice to know my children are learning about religion values. I know my children are in a safe environment. We haven't regretted our decision to have our children attend St. Paul School. We are very happy!!

Our family is very pleased with the educational experience that our son is receiving at St. Paul School. The academic curriculum is challenging and the teachers are engaged, attentive and kind. Faculty, staff and students stress the tenets of the Catholic faith and the importance of caring for one another. Parents are encouraged to be involved in their child's education and are an integral part of the school community. We are confident that St. Paul is properly preparing our son for academic and personal success.

We are thrilled with St. Paul's faculty, curriculum and family atmosphere. Our daughter has been there for 5 years and is thriving. Originally we considered it because of hearing so many good things about it. We toured 3 other schools and really like the updated computer and science labs at St. Paul's. Right after starting PreK we found the teachers and staff clearly enjoy their jobs. The school has a long list of extra activities available from sports and music to Environmental Club. Another plus is you can tell the parents are involved with their kids. Thanks to them and the school these kids love to learn and it shows.

I think this school is just ok. Im not unhappy as a parent, but Im also not loving this schools curriculum. They seem to be very advanced and try to hard to be above surrounding towns standards. It seems all a bit too stressful for a young child.

This school has little education and they are too focused on religion and not other things like math and literature. It is good for some people but not for me and my three other siblings. Two years ago we left and we are happy to be out of there. We are getting a much better education now.

This is a joke right, I had 2 Children who went there and when we left and went elswhere, they were both behind and sheltered to say the least, this school provides little education, they are all about the money. they do not try and push your children to be better people they want them to be St. Pauls peole and if you're not you're not in. My Daughter needed help and she never recived it, they cannot be bothered with helped. Terrible education. I could not wait to get out of there.

I think it's wonderful, No it's not for everyone but I have 2 children there,and yes There expectations are high but I want my children to achieve great things that's why I sent them there.If you want a good education in a faimly atmosphere,then come to St. Paul,the teachers are great and the admistrative staff also, I've been very happy there. Your children will get a exelllent education,plus they have dances craft fairs and a basketball team, cheerleading and other activities.I looked at any schools private and public and something brought me back here.

St. Paul School is an excellent school. The Principal and Adminstrative Staff are very professional and caring, and the teachers are focused and excellent educators. Sending my child to a Catholic School has benefited him in so many ways: Morals, Discipline, Respect, Education, Interaction with peers and Respect for Catholism. There could be more extracurricular activities for the lowers grades. I do think that the fundraising requirements are too demanding. After all we pay tuition and have jobs we are responsible for. For single parents it is difficult and not taken into consideration. Stay at home parents it is ideal for where there are two parents in the child's life.

I think the principal of this school has no business being a principal. Her attitude is high and mighty and I think she needs to be brought down to size. As far as the education my children, my children are learning a lot and are very advanced for their ages and feel the curriculum is wonderful.
