This staff, principal, and fellow parents have become an extension of my family. I trust each teacher to infuse Christ's message into every subject and to promote my children's gifts while assisting them in areas of struggle. My children appreciate the gift of Annunciation BVM School, as do I.
I have two children enrolled at ABVM with a third on the way to enrollment. The school is fantastic in all areas from language (Spanish) to science. The technology is light years ahead of all local schools, and the students are almost too advanced when they hit the local private high school! I would highly recommend ABVM to parents of prospective students.
Annunciation is an excellent school and I recommend it highly. My son is enrolled and is performing at or above grade level. This may not sound like much, however when you consider that the public school could not work with him and was allowing him to fail and yet still advance in the system, it is a huge change of priorities. Additionally, we were turned down at two other private schools due to his IEP. My son has some special needs and the principal spoke to my wife and I prior to him starting school to see what his needs were and how they could help. The teachers and support staff have been equally impressive. The school operates closer to a family model than a school administrative structure. The curriculum, including moral values and self-discipline prepare the students well. My son is enjoying school, making good friends, and learning to excel.
ABVM is the best of the best. They offer small classes, individual student attention, and rescources beyond parents dreams. They have a great gifted program so students can learn at there own pace. They have a program so that if a student is struggling, a parent, teacher, or the student themselves can join a team of teachers across all disaplines to get them where they need to be: successful. The technology is amazing: smartboards in the classrooms, interactive computer music program, laptops for each student, and a brandnew IT upgrade. Best of all my kids are disappointed when summer comes: they miss their friends, the fantastic sports, and their principal who knows every child by name and how they are doing at any given moment. My kids are happy, brilliant, and respectful wherever they are. You can tell an ABVM student in uniform or out because of their faith.
I am a parent of 3 students at Annunciation BVM as well as the part time Development Director. I have worked in the school for one year and appreciate it more now than ever. The faculty and administration put 110% into the education and faith formation of my boys. They receive a well-rounded education with a focus on Christian values that shines through all their school and extra curricular activities.
My daughter Danielle seems very hap[py at your school. She excells academically and plays girls basketball. Thank you for all you have done to make her 5th through 8th grade experience a positive one.
The quality of the academic programs is really great! They have so many extracurricular activities that you can join in for each season and they are adding more each year! Parent involvement is good, too. Each parent contributes to something during the school year. I was a student there and now I'm a doctor. The teachers and students help me develop for later life. Enrolling your child will really help them through life!
