I attended St. Andrews School. I speak from first-hand experience when I say there was rampant and horrific bullying. I have no complaints about the curriculum itself. However, teachers and administration were slow to take action.

Simply an inclusive, happy, well thought out slice of paradise to send our children to for a great education. Our 2 lower school children are happy every day to go to Saint Andrews and we are thrilled with their commitment to both a 21st century education and the development of a well rounded person. Looking past the fact that every student gets an IPAD the real benefit to this school is the small community like atmosphere. Familiar and smiling faces abound, children are well cared for, and with the small class sizes our children get the attention they need to succeed. When we moved to Savannah we looked at all the local schools and ended up moving again to Wilmington Island to be near Saint Andrews. If you are looking for a great school in Savannah you would be doing your children a disservice to overlook this school.

St. Andrew's has been such a positive influence on my children - and our entire family. It is truly a family centered school with support and encouragement for the children to meet high expectations. Every school will have occasional problems, but the administration and teachers address them quickly and fairly at St. Andrew's. We couldn't be happier.

My daughter used to dread going to school when she was in public school. Since she has started at St. Andrews, adjectives like 'great and so much fun' have been used by her to describe her days. She is in second grade and loves it! I am very pleased with the whole child concept. It's not only about a fine education, but raising socially conscious children to develop into empowered adults.

My student is involved in the New IB program. I believe it is making a difference in not only his understanding of the subject but more importantly his ability to think independently and outside the box. The work load ia adequate and challenging. Athlete programs are very inclusive in the High School. Criticisms: I believe that there should be some improvement in math curriculum. Teachers are nice and work with students.

My children are thrilled that school has started again this year - and not only to see their friends - but to see their teachers too. The know that they are loved and that their individuality is appreciated. I have very different children with very different learning styles and they both are challenged and nurtured by teachers that care about them. St. Andrew's recently became an IB school in the high school and we are eager for our children to begin that program in a few years.

How can it be possible that everyone is happy at this school? The teachers, the administration, the parents but especially the children are glowing with happiness. My child went to a public school prior to attending St. Andrews and when he arrived his whole life improved for the better. We worried that the work load would be too difficult, and although he works his hardest to keep up, he is adequately and thoroughly challenged. I have seen a very positive change in my son. This is a top notch school that really cares about each and every child. If you are looking for a school that nurtures the child yet challenges them to be their very best - look no further this is your school!
