God bless them my kid went from an F student to an A+ student
—Submitted by a parent


Posted April 4, 2006

The school is not dirty. It's just not a modern building, having been built in the 60's. The quality of the educational experience is second to none. I have 5 kids in the St. Anthony system so I speak from experience. Children in this small district (approximately 1500 students total K-12) are definitely pushed to excel and the testing scores reflect that. Private school quality without the religion,

The MCA-II is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Minnesota. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
