This school is excellent. The teachers and principal really care about the kids. It is a well rounded education that my kids love.
Our daughter has flourished at St. Joe's. She's getting A's and enjoying close friendships in her small classes. It's the best-kept secret in local education! People love dumping on our school for their own reasons, but we just stay positive and get the last laugh, because our kids are so much the better for getting to spend time in this caring educational community.
i was skeptical about the is school at first, but once i got there i fell in love. this sports are awesome. fine arts: great! no school could measure up to it! A+!
If your child needs help with reading don't waste your time with this school. They won't be able to help. I always thought private meant better until, I had to find a new school for my daughter 2 weeks into the school year. Even though the classroom sizes are low, the teacher said she didn't have the time to give my daughter what she needed. I think it was more an ability to be able to pick and choose your students. They also don't have to help children with disablities, so no ramps. I always thought that christian school would be more excepting of all children. This is not true, because thet are a private school. Save your money, us the public school system, and teach your children about god yourself and how to except all people.
My son's comment about this school says it all...'Mom, I love going to school at St.Joe's.' This school is filled with teachers/staff/administration that are supportive and caring. I am only sorry that I waited so long to move him to this school. I wanted that 'free' public education. But now that I see my son's academics progress, his self-esteem flourish, and his overall personality really come out and shine -- this is one check I don't ever mind writing! Public schools have wonderful, caring, devoted teachers, but they have so many issues to deal with that I could always see my 'average' kid falling through the cracks.
