SRS consistently strives to improve everything that we do from teaching and caring for our students, to improved communication with parents and most important, spiritual growth for all. Our teachers are required to attend monthly faculty meetings, as well as weekly sometimes daily, communications between various grade level instructors. Our students are our main focus through regular academic courses, specials and after school clubs. Our students are involved in many activities such as Card and Letter writing for nursing homes, Fund Raising, Drum line, Spelling Bee Challenges, Math Competitions, Science and Lego Olympics, Church Choir and many more. We also produce a high quality Musical each year. Many of our clubs are not currently listed here so please contact our school for further information.
This school is awesome! I love the teachers and I am so glad they have an advanced math class.
My kids are learning a lot at St. Richard. They enjoy the teachers and are getting an advanced education. First grader is reading extremely well after only 3 months. Technology is highly valued, religious education is stressed, the teachers are highly accreditted. I don't think I've ever walked into the building and not been greeted warmly. Principal is friendly but, as principals are, a little daunting! Parents club offers info, hot lunches on wednesdays, gift certificates, family activities.
My expectations with the teachers have been highly met. They continually challenge students which allows them to prepare, plan and organize themselves for high school. The principals there are very fair but do not tolerate misbehavior. The negative comments that I have seen posted must have come from an angry parent who's child misbehaved too much and were disciplined for their actions. My children have the freedom to learn and not be interrupted by classroom trouble-makers, threats, or social issues that most schools face. Children are there to learn and be nurtured which is exactly what happens. They also know that there are consequences for their actions. SRS is a great school!
They have no idea anymore what teaching is. It has become a sit and listen, and do not question us. That's the attitude from the princiapl. This once great school now loses caring teachers because of this attitude. Someone please SRS it is about the childern
Sure..Seeing is believing. I am sure a great show is put on, but the truth is the school has had issues for years. Quality and concern for students has dropped. Seems with the letting go of experienced teachers to be replaced by cheaper new ones has caught up with them. They have no idea anymore what teaching is. It has become a sit and listen, and do not question us. That's the attitude from the princiapl to the parents.
Saint Richard school students, teachers and staff welcome visitors. Come and see what we do. Seeing is believing.
Too bad they are so busy investing in technology, and not our children. Principal has turned over a staff of long term knowledgable teachers to a group of 'newbies' afarid to do anything
We sent our daughter their for four years. We had nothing but problems and were let down by the teachers and principal. Our experience was that St. Richard failed us.
The curriculum at St. Richard ranks far above any other school in the area. Students leave SRS extremely prepared as they display great confidence, leadership, and excellence in and outside of their high school classrooms. The knowledge and faith based learning experiences last a lifetime.
