I went to Ecole for high school, graduated in 07, and would have to say that it was the best choice i could have made. Being a student at Ecole is like being part of a huge family. You are surrounded by teachers who care. The classes are small so it gives students a chance to become close with their teachers as well as other students. I wouldn't be the person i am today without the faculty of Ecole. Coming into high school I was lost, no direction and had a bad attitude. By the time i graduated I had changed into a person with goals and dreams i wanted to accomplish. I met many great people through Ecole, and still keep in touch with my friends i had met there. Mr. David is a wonderful person and almost a father like figure in the eyes of the students. To sum it all up, the building may not be "pretty" but the faculty and staff of Ecole are amazing and you will never regret sending your child here, not matter what age.

One more thing, the children along with my nephews who are below 10 years old do not deserve to hear the foul mouths from the coaches and the players, if they want to curse like sailors move the baseball field away from the homes it is now by. I am not a saint, but I also don't talk with a foul mouth in front of children.

I won't deny some of what the other comments have written down below, but I will say there is alot more good then bad. This school is a family to alot of these so call bad kids! Maybe these children aren't bad they are just misunderstood! The teachers at Ecole take their time with them and truly care about them. And as for the owners, they treat these kids as they were their own. Yes, the school may not be perfect but what school is?! So instead of insulting the school and the owners.... maybe people should come around and help them out! They are great people. Every child deserves an education. Even if they were kicked out of another school. And another thing, as for the school being an eye sore. Not really! Oh the coaches..... so go get your stones to cast since you must be a saint! Ecole is a great school that cares for their students. They are by far perfect but perfect for me and my son! I love the school, the teachers, the parents, sports, and the owners.

Ecole can be classified as a poor man's private school. Compared to other top notch private schools, tuition is cheap. This is a mom and pop run organization. The facility is in deplorable condition. The dollars must be going into their pockets and not into upkeep and restoration. Things have gotten worse with the younger Frederico's running the school. They will take kids who have been kicked out of other schools. If your child likes sports, go somewhere else. They have no athletic program.

The worst part about Ecole was having to graduate. I attended Ecole from the age of three until I graduated last year and I would do anything to go back. The negative things most people have to say about Ecole have to do with the campus and the sports but what difference do those things make? And the comments about the teachers being unhelpful are absolutely wrong. Any teacher (and the principle too) in the building is willing to help any student at anytime. Sending your child to Ecole Classique is one of the best experiences you can give to them.

My daughter recently transferred to Ecole after 11 years in Catholic school. She has been welcomed with open arms by caring teachers, administration and students. Although the campus may not be state-of-the-art, I feel there are more important aspects of education.

My children went to Ecole from 2 years old through high school. They have excelled in college and beyond. They had the opportunity to experience and participate in many activities. The administration and the teachers gave them the confidence to dare to strive for their dreams. In any situation, you get out of a school what you put into it. It is truly a family and they rejoice when their students do well but they will do anything to help a student who is struggling as long as they are willing to try.
