We love Sts Cyril and Methodius school. Everyone is one big family. Parents volunteer. This truly a Catholic school.

My daughter loves Sts. C&M. She has blossomed. I am very pleased with the education she has received.

I was a student at this school from kindergarten until our class graduated this past spring. It has given me some of my happiest memories and I am sad to se my days in this school go. The teachers were so caring and altho it is small it has many programs and fun events. It has a wonderful education and I hope you consider sending your children here.

This is clearly the best school in the Lakewood, West-Side of Cleveland area. The teachers are very attentive to each and every student's needs and the principal is dedicated in creating an atmosphere of learning, leading and Catholic morality.

This is the only school in the area that reminds me of my former Catholic grade school. The students are well disciplined, they attend Mass weekly, their Principal, Mrs. Shakarian, is an excellent leader, and they won a prestigious award from the Department of Education. My children run into the building in the morning!

This Blue RIbbon school does not only have the lowest tuition in the county, but has some of the best teachers as well. They go above and beyond their call of duty, and that is a lot considering what these people are paid.

This is an award-winning US Dept of Ed Blue Ribbon School - what a jewel! It is a nice, small alternative to the other big Catholic school in Lakewood. If parents want lots of individual attention for their children - and caring teachers, check this one out. The principal is gifted as an administrator. She knows every child in the school by first name. The school is over 100 years old and better than ever!

Our daughter was at a another school getting straight A's and learning nothing. That school was just passing her through. In her first year at St.Cyril's her grades properly reflected her learning level. She received mostly B's and C's. In the last two years, her grades have been mostly A's and a few B's that properly reflect what she is learning. Mrs Shakarian and her staff do a great job. The Blue Ribbon Award properly reflects what is happening in this school.

St. Cyril's has a wonderful academic program that was recently validated by winning a national award - the Presidents's Blue Ribbon School Award. We recently enrolled our 4th grade daughter and she loves the school. This is truly a Catholic school in the best tradition of Catholic education. We are very pleased.

St. Cyril's offers the best education and the best value in town. The students are polite and the teachers are wonderful. If you like a small, family school, this is it.

This is a good school under new leadership - and it's even better. My son has been there for four years and he has improved in every aspect. They have a wonderful Science Fair and Poetry Contest every year. I would advise parents to consider this small, family school seriously.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
