It is part of our rights to "voice our opnions". As one parent puts it: the STRS parents are "brown nosers". That is his/her opnion. What I don't understand is this: There are so many better schools in the diocese of Camden, why did you choos this one? This is not Harvard or Yale, it is only an Elementary school, there are many more schools in Camden County that give "Quality educations", and they are private also. STRS is just another Roman Catholic School that is run but a sister. There is one in Blackwood also. Just as good.
I have been a part of St. Teresa School Community for more than 5 years now. All three of my children have gone to St. Teresa's school, with my last one being in eighth grade now. I have seen the school make incredible improvements over the past several years! The new principal is firm, but a strong leader and has done amazing things to improve our school. The faculty is the best I've seen in a long time and the children are really thriving. My children have had very positive experiences- so much wonderful things to say about our school, why not just come out and visit! Talk to the students, talk to the parents and you will see for yourself what a great place it is.
This is a great school! Small,caring environment and it has a strong Catholic identity. St. Teresa's is the school most parents would wish they could find for their kids! We love it here.
My child loves the new principal at St. Teresa's! She will not leave the school until she gets to say goodbye to her! The school has a caring, dedicated faculty and I am so happy to have such a great school for the Catholic education of my daughter.
The March 23 post is oviously someone who was a 'favorite' of the last principal of St. Teresa's. I think the new principal is wonderful for the school! She loves children and treats everyone in the same, caring manner -- no favorites whatsover. She is an asset to the school!
This school use to be a really great school until the new principal took over. She doesn't know how to interact with kids and singles kids out and will go after them. Very disappointed because this school use to be a good school.
I went to public school my hole life,back then you were just a number you only new your class mates not much about the next grade unless you were a street kid. I placed my child in St.Teresa's the school is amazing! Everyone knows you by name from K-8 the parents/vollenteers treat you like family.Teachers are always keeping you upto date on everything I don't have to wait for a progress report if my child is having trouble in a subject they tell you that day! The principal and the IHMA Sisters are fantastic not only is religion taught but, morals,self disapline,self respect this has build my childs confidence.There is not enuff room on this page to tell you everything just come out and see for your self. Come and sit thru a class or ask the children they are more then happy to tell you.The school speaks for it's self!
St teresa's an excellent school! I am a former student and had three children graduate and one still attending. Three children have successfully gone on to high school and two to college! the ihm sisters offer great support to the school, a faith filled atmosphere where children are free to honor their god.
I recently graduated from St. Teresa's and when I saw that you could review on this sight, I thought I would share how great this school is. All the teachers know the children by name, as does the principal. Everyone is so kind and friendly. The teachers are always there for your children, even after Graduation. They are the most respectful people and respect what you have to say. They also have sports programs there that are excellent. They have volleyball, basketball, cheerleading, and track. The coaches are outstanding! I want to say thank you to the faculty at St. Teresa's for a great 9 years!
St.Teresa's has a excellent academic program. Your child is not known as a number sitting in a chair they are known on a first name bases buy all students from k-8 every child is like a big buddy to the younger children. The parent involvment is exellent as a parent you are never in the dark about your child it's like getting a proggress report everyday. I always know what my child is doing or not doing or what is lacking in studys. Teachers are excellent in keeping you up to date and always available to answer questions you may have. I give St. Teresa A+
