St. Pius X School

This is the second year that my daughter has been attending St Pius. This school has been wonderful! It is a nice balance of structure, character devleopment, academic challenge and fun. There are great teachers at this school! We really like it.

My daughter has been attending St.Pius Preschool for 2 years and our experience has been wonderful. I have had multiple conversations with the directors about their curriculum and I feel very confident that my daughter will be well prepared for kindergarten. When an issue arose with my daughters handwriting (she doesn't hold her pencil the "standard" way), the director immediately contacted the kindergarten teachers at the school we plan to send her to for kindergarten and the issue was resolved. I have been very pleased with our experience and I would highly recommend this school to anyone wanting a quality preschool with amazing staff.

Be very careful about the pre-school. We decided we wanted our son to have a Catholic education and enrolled him in the pre-school program. We started him early so he was in pre-school for 2 years. The cost was significant yet the teaching staff were inept. I would rate the education low quality and it will not prepare your child for the kindergarten qualification test. In fact, we were not even told about the test until it was too late to prepare. It was our first child, and we were ignorant. Although the pre-school guarantees that your child's pre-school "record" will not be shared with the school, they do share it with the purpose of disqualifying "challenging" children. Mu son was one that year. St. Pius is not equipped to deal with issues and my son was asked not to return. The principal in 2009-2010 was arrogant and challenged my wife about not having seen her at church services. It was surreal. I was educated at Christ The King and Hartley in the Columbus Diocese and I am appalled at the way my son and my family were discarded. No one even called us from the parish to help us through that although I reached out to the pastor several times. We trusted them - to our regret.

There are many aspects of the school which are nice. However, teachers are not receptive to students with sensory needs. The principal is a figure head and has no say so to improve outdated practices. There is an air of---it's always been this way...let's continue on.
