We have been at Venerini Academy for five years now and both of my children are working on a solid foundation for academic excellence! There isn t a high school out there that they wouldn t be prepared for after graduation! Families here are wonderful! Many give of their own free time to help out and pitch in making Venerini truly a diamond on the hill.
Venerini truly is a gem. We were a Venerini family for 15 years - our three children were so much better prepared for their private high schools (Notre Dame & St. John's) than their public school, and many other Catholic school, peers. All three of them were placed into all honors and AP classes. Venerini gives children plenty of individual attention, and both fosters the growth of existing talents and helps to create new ones.
I find Vernenini to be a very understanding and caring enviroment to learn in. The teachers are wonderful. My two sons are very happy there since age 3, they are in 5th & 6th grade now. Choosing Venerini has proven to be a Great Choice!
My older son went here andnow my younger one does. We love the atmosphere, the teachers are incredible.Small class sizes allow for individual attention, which for us is very important at this stage in the childrens' lives. We would like academic curriculum to be a little more challenging to the kids. Excellent overall rating !
We have had 2 sons in Venerini for the last 7 years and are very happy with the education. Great families, caring teachers, small class sizes and individual attention. I echo the extensive parental and family involvement. Would like to have a playground rather than a paved parking lot for the children but this is a trade off. Competitive athletics. Excellent well rounded education.
We love Venerini, currently have one child enrolled and will enroll the younger two when they are ready for kindergarten. The teachers are incredibly dedicated, the program is rigorous, the parents are involved. I was skeptical since I am a public school teacher, but am convinced this private school is a solid foundation for future academic success and an incredible value. One of Worcester's true gems.
As a parent I am very satisfied with the experience my daughter is having Venerini. The school atmospher is warm and welcoming. The classes are just big enough for the children to have the attention they need and the teachers are able to have a better appreciation of the needs of each child. I welcome the discipline and structure of the school. I would encourage anyone to send their child to this school.
My wife and I are very pleased with Venerini. Our son has attended the school for two years and his teachers have all been wonderful. There is a tremendous spirit among the staff, the students and the famalies affiliated with the school. I would recommend this school to anyone - and will be sending our other two sons here when they reach school-age.
I hated school my whole life until I went to Venerini. I am currently a senior in college in MA and majoring in International Business. A key part of my education is my ability to learn foreign languages. I have experience in three languages and I must say that the nurturing environment that I got from my elementary education at Venerini has inspired me to choose this career path. The staff was always warm and welcoming, but at the same time strict enough to encourage you to work your hardest. I remember my days at VA like they were yesterday, and I still look back on the techniques I learned in 7th grade Spanish classes to help me in my Italian classes today! I don't know too many other schools that prepare you for life with the intense curriculum that Venerini offers.
There in no leadership and the teachers that are qualified to teach are leaving. This school is not the only choice in Worcester. You should really look elsewhere.
