If you do not mind having your child in a place, where the teachers constantly break down in tears and hear voices in their head, then this is the place for you.
I was a student at st Agnes academy and have been bullied for 6 six years in this school i kept asking for help from the teachers but they could not handle the situation i my parents and me even went to the principal and she made my life harder this. This school can not handle bullying and I do not reccomend this school at all the bullying got so bad that fights occurred and i even got death threats from fellow students and the school did not help not one bit. if i could rate this school 0 i would! oh... and the academics are not the best because i have had more challenging work than what this school has given me. the teachers seem nice but they don't care about the students at all. they also make children pay one dollar to the church every week or month and if u dont turn it in they punish and say how spoiled with all the stuff you have and i have seen some little kids even start to cry. i have cried in this school many times of sadness from the lack of respect i have gotten i hope people read this because i would hate it if another child suffered as much as i did. i had only 1 friend because him and me were what the other kids call nerds and me and my friend suffered 6 years.
Academically, the school is OK. If you live in KB, then it's convenient. For a parochial school, it's very expensive. They do ask a lot of money from the students in terms of donations, once or twice a month. If you don't bring the items, you might miss recess or something like that. Very strict, but students are not treated equally. Some members of the administration and faculty do have their favorites, i.e. those kids of parents who are very active in school. You are also required to buy gift cards from winn-dixie. This is mandatory. If you don't buy them, then you have to pay $125 to the school or they won't give you the final report card. Rules are not applied to everyone in the school.
I am in st agnes i love it it is so fun and you learn a lot of stuff
My kids are receiving a very integral education thanks to St Agnes Academy faculty and staff efforts and dedication. St Agnes contributes to my kids academic excellence and Catholic values education foundation, that will help them become better citizens and better daughters of God in their lives.
If you have a child with a dissability do not waste your time with St. Agnes.
You will never find a more caring enviornment for your child. Structure is enforced, and attendance is important. A true sense of family is felt by all.
I think this is a great school. Ive been there from pk- 8th and Ive enjoined it both accidemectly and it was very fun. There is a great bond between students and teachers, sense it is very small everyone knows each other and are very good friends. In this school, they teach you great education and teaches you honor and respect. There is also a lot of community service we help the poor very much. This is a great school that prepares you for high school and makes you more responsibl.
I went to St.Agnes from PK-3 to 8th grade, the school does embrace the Christian idea of family extremely well, it was a second home for me. The teachers and students do have strong relationships; however, St.Agnes is very strict, for example, if homework is not handed in the next day, the result is an automatic early morning detention(all detentions are before school). The school is strong in math, history and sciences and unfortunately writing skills are not developed. The main downside of St.Agnes is the lack of cultural diversity, your families are mostly rich, Latin Americans who are superficial and extremely hypocritical and of course there is mandatory mass on Fridays.
I dont have enough words to tell you about this school, it is a blessing to be here, the teachers are all amazing, the people, the values they teach our children. The best school I could find for my kids
