The principal and teachers at St.Margarets is very involved with all their students, but I don't feel that they are getting the best education, the price that you are paying for you should get more for your money in education wise than to be average with public school, it doesnt have a lot to offer for students, I've gone to their meetings and have participated in their events sometimes its not organized properly, all I can say is, its a good school & safe environment,family feel, good staff, but they can make it better and have it be a great school !!!

As everyone else has already stated, St Margrets definitely has a family feeling. Others have complained about the lunches, although we all have the option to pack a lunch for a children, and purchase lunches on occasion. The children are academically challenged in the upper grades but I'm not sure about PREK- and K. I almost have to participate at least a little bit because you can't get a discount if you don't help with at least two activities ,you won;t get the 1000 dollar discount. As for the hidden fees i guess we're talking about book fees (60.00) per child. Which every way you look at this school they are the best deal for multiple children in town The only complaint I have is the quality of the uniform shirts they sell at the school is poor in my opinion. They just didn't wash well at all.

Everyone is very nice at the school. It is very family feeling. Everyone knows almost everyone,except for the parnets who never get involved in anything, and yet it seems they are always the first to complain about someting, or there children get in trouble. Maybe if they got involvedjust alittle in there childs school, they would know whats going on in school with there children, and when the next pta meeting is. i find it funny that they are always the complainers. The principal gets very involved and does as much as she can. She knows all children on first name basis, even the good ones. The teachers are great to. Only compaint is the lunch program, it is quite expensive.

The teachers are great but the administration can be very rude at times. The tuition may be low but there are MANY hidden fees. We send checks out every week for something else. They also do not serve school lunches so you have to pay big bucks as they school is catered to by local pizza joints.

St. Margarets is a school that has a family feeling. The children are challenged academically at each grade level. The principal and faculty care for the children and this shows in the atmosphere of the school. Academically I believe my child is being prepared for highschool and life at St. Margarets. The entire experience including parent participation if first rate at St Margarets. The principal understands the challenges that our children will face in the world and is determined to prepare them for that challenge.
