San Jose Catholic School has provided my children with many positive experiences academically and socially. Their focus on Science, Techonology, Engineering, and Math is key to motiviating students for careers in technical fields.

San Jose Catholic is a great fit for my family. It is a very caring, loving ,environment. The teachers go out of their way to help each and every child.I love that my children attend Mass each week and celebrate all holy days. I believe it is one of the most successful Catholic schools in the city.

Both of my children have benefited as students of San Jose Catholic. Teachers take the time to help and get to know students well. Extra curricular activities are there for students if they so wish and the facilities are top of the line. It is a great place to prepare students for high school. Great school all around!

This school has excellent teachers and is academically challenging. I attended this school from K-8th and now my children attend this school. It has a great Christian atmosphere that is taught to all the children. The students attend Mass every week. This school is academically challenging because the students learn study skills and leave the school with a great knowledge base to be successful in life. This school prepared me for high school and college. I wouldn't be as successful as I am today if it weren't for this school.

I have had my children at SJCS for 5 years and both my husband an I very pleased and grateful for the excellent academics, strong show of faith through stewardship, great opportunities in sports, after-school programs, security, and the fine arts programs. The school provides for after-school care program for my children and that is also appreciated. I strongly recommend looking at San Jose Catholic if you are school shopping. It is well worth the visit.

San Jose Catholic is an excellent school! The teachers and staff are devoted to giving our children the academics they need in a safe Catholic environment! The school puts academics first and also offers so many extra opportunities for students to excel, like sports, music, art, running club, brain brawl, lego robotics.

We attended the 2011 fall festival and where we were surprised to be greeted by parents and staff with alcohol in hand. This festival should be focused towards our children, not beer and wine sales. This is a bad message to instill in the minds of our youth. Put the beer and wine away for a day.

My 2 children are new to the school and we could not be more pleased with the quality of academics, the administration and the parent involvement. The staff went out of their way to make sure our kids were happy in their classes and were being challenged at an appropriate level. Wow. Top notch school from top to bottom. We could not be more pleased.

So called Christians and Catholics here. This is NOT the Catholic school you attended as a child. To many inappropriate relationships between teachers and parents. If you don't fit the mold... your out.

We moved in from out of town 3 years ago and my children have attended this school since our arrival. I can honestly say that the staff and faculty at SJCS are excellent and caring. The community of families have been welcoming to my entire family. If you want to provide your children with superior academic opportunity and a loving and nurturing environment, I highly recommend SJCS.

I give SJCS a Poor grade If your not in the click well need I say more. This goes for teachers and parents.

I wanted to respond to the parent that complained about the tuition. I am a single mother of one child and I find the tuition extremely reasonable. You are sending your child to PRIVATE school, what do you expect? The Catholic school system has to run itself and is not for profit. What if all the parents didn't have the money? Should they let all the kids come to school for free? Maybe you should look into sending your child to public school if you financially can't handle 400-500 a month, which is what I'm paying and that INCLUDES extended day!! How is that lots of money? When my son was in daycare I paid over 600 a month for that. San Jose is an awesome school. The teachers and faculty are very involved and want to help with any concerns you have.

.......this school is good if you have lots of money and will never miss a tuition fee.If you happen to not have any fund available to pay,the principal will not allow you to go back in class no matter how long it would take.So if you don't have the fund for the next 2-3-4-5 days then your child will suffer because he/she be wondering how come he/she wont be able to get back in class.It is not fair because it is suppose to be for good education.It is not like you're trying to run away and hide,you just don't have the money at that time.We feel very discriminated against when my child was not allowed to get back in her classes until she the tuition is paid.Thank God,she graduated and now goes to BK and even her academics are being recognized.

My children have been in this school for six years now and we love it. The teachers are very competent and caring, the administration is attentive and the children are happy. There is a lot of family/parent involvement and it makes for a very friendly atmosphere.

I am very disturbed by the bully comments. My daughters have experienced nothing but great experiences with teachers and students as well. My oldest just graduated from Bishop Kenny with outstanding college goals. My youngest does have a learning disability and if was not for the SJCS teachers, I would have never known. Once I acted upon having her tested to ID the issues, we worked together as a team to make sure she improved her reading capabilities. SJCS ROCKS!!!!

San Jose Catholic is an excellent school. The teachers care about the kids and challenge them daily with living up to strong moral standards and academic success. I value the SJCS teachers and administration supporting our students and teaching our children with faith and discipline. I value that SJCS teachers and administration are helping us teach our kids to deal with adversity and challenges. I value the longevity of the Teacher's tenure at SJCS. I value that my kids are being taught to think, study, and learn in such a caring enviroment that it San Jose Catholic School.

My children have been at SJCS for the past 4 years. I can say it has been a good experience for them. The elementary school has given my children a good solid academic and social foundation. All of this plus a good Christian morals. I can say it is well worth the money compared to the nonsense in the public education system. It is ashamed that people cannot rise above any childish behavior witnessed by adults. I can say I'm not part of any "in or out click/club". I march to the beat of my own drum and so do my children- we are well accepted at SJCS. God Bless are teachers and administration!
