Not a very good school.... It utterly saddend me that my child went through the things she did. She makes straight As and has won the 4H speech contest and is just plainly a genius. But I don't mind that this a catholic school and I completly respect that but my family and I are Christians. The Christian children have to sit and watch the Catholics go through their ceromonies and the teachers were mean and had favoritism over the catholics...... Even the children were cruel to her. Horrible..... I have moved her out..

I am a Catholic parent of a first grader and cannot wait for my youngest to begin Kindergarten here! The teachers are dedicated and the ratios are wonderful. While costs have risen over the last several years, the average per month is significantly less than what I pay monthly for child care and you get so much for the price. My first grader loves coming to school and is learning so many different things, academically, spiritually, socially and has an amazing amount of respect for others, especially adults. I would not consider sending my children to any other school!

I am the parent of a 4th grader and 8th grader. Both kids started with Kindergarten. I am so thankful for this school. My children are bright. One was a little too loud as a kindergartener and the other too shy. Both are excelling in academics and have become good friends with their classmates. My family is Catholic, and my children now know more about the faith than I do. Teachers are very dedicated and parents involved. You can't do wrong by sending your children to this school - Catholic or otherwise.

I am the parent of a four and six year old. Both are currently enrolled in the montessor program which only goes through kindergarten. St. Agatha is truly what its tagline says, a vibrant learning community anchored in Christ. The administrators and teachers really care about development on all levels; mind, body and spirit. Character building is a big focus. I was initially ambivalent about going to a catholic school, since we are not catholic. But at this point, we feel that the catholic faith has only enriched our faith and broadened our involvement in God's work. As with other Christian denominations, we are all working towards the same goal-training these children to be compassionate, contributing, Godly members of society.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
