I agree with the "best kept secret"! With small class sizes, students' learning is maximized and students' misbehavior is minimized...
I have had a history with many of the private schools in South Florida and find St. Ambrose to be one of the best. From the administration to the teachers, I have been exceedingly happy with my experiences there.
I feel St. Ambrose School is not a good choice for families both academically, and in a spiritual, nurturing sense, as it was many years ago. Many, many families have left the school after several years and had to place their children in local schools to 'bring them up to speed' academically. I am one of those, along with many others! The graduating 8th grade children of St. Ambrose generally are far behind their peers (public and private) upon entering the high school level. Nobody wants to have to move their children during their academic youth, hopefully one day St. Ambrose will have a qualified administration that will be able to bring it back to the level we all once experienced and loved.
I think St. Ambrose is a very good school.Parents get involved in the children education, teachers are the best too.
I feel that St. Ambrose is a excellent school. The faculty and staff are great and do a great job in spite of the overseeing priest.
I think St. ambrose is a good school. St. ambrose does accept Mckay Scholarships, which is relly good. at first i thought my daugter be'd good for this school but i found out that it isnt relly good for kids who need more help than others. she had a hard time with all the tests and homeworks, which were hard. she needed lots of help on certain subjects and st. ambrose didnt relly help all on those subjects as i thought i'd would. the teachers are caring and have a great sense of humor with good personality. but some certain teachers give to much work at times. it has a wonderful drama club that has won many 1st places. the sports department is overall good. there is alot of parent involment, lots of parents help out in the school and in many occasions. overall, this school is relly good.
I think that st. Ambrose is not only an excellent school, but you will never find a more caring group of faculty, led by a kind and caring principal. I believe as with any school, if a child wants to learn they will. It could be that maybe the parents should let the principal and teachers do their jobs and teach and not have to constantly discipline, and then have the parents be nonsupportive of the staff. I would highly recommend the school and staff and feel that our students education, overall, would stand up to any other school.
Saint Ambrose is an overall good school,but this school lacks in good teachers. Over all the school is o.k. It would be great if we had some good teachers. Pre-K3, Pre-K4 and the Kindergarten teachers are the best in the entire school. Smart,caring, professional individuals.
