I had my children in public school, so this review is a bit of a comparison. The teachers at AMBS are excellent, but they were good in the public school too. So what makes AMBS special? The principal, Ms. Mathews, is super smart and kind. She pours her heart, mind and and soul into AMBS, as do the teachers. AMBS is on the small side, you will never be a number here. The fact it is a K through eight school is a plus. No transition to a middle school at that rough age, just a seamless transition into AMBS's own middle school program. The school offers advanced classes and many extracurriculars. High level of parent involvement, opportunities to help in the school. You can volunteer as much or as little as you can. The children learn about the faith, which is the reason for the school. Public schools can't offer that and I don't fault them for that. But I see how nice it is to be in a school where faith is woven into the daily fabric, such as putting on a Christmas pageant, going to Mass, learning about the faith, and praying during the day. Your child will be well-cared for and well-educated at AMBS. As a parent, you will be treated as a partner and with the highest respect.
Great school, great enviroment! Pre-k classes are held in seperate cottages instead of mixing with the older children. Very structured day for the little ones, great parent envolvement.
Exceptional school many children come out of the school with scholarships. child ratio in class is low for better learning. The school is now an academy. There are no church demands. But they like parent participation.
