Our children attend St. Andrew School and we have been involved with the school for nine years. Our decision to send out children to St. Andrew has been the single best decision we have made as a family.
Both of my sons attended St. Andrew and the experience was fantastic. They both excelled in high school and college. You won't find a better or safer school in southern Illinois.
My child attended St. Andrew Catholic School from Kindergarten through 8th grade. I can honestly say that my money for the high cost of tuition was not well spent. After entrusting this school with my child's education, my child had to receive tutoring to catch up in the 3Rs (reading, writing, and math), when he got to high school. My son did not receive the best in academics and also had to endure being snubbed by other students from wealthy families.
Bullying is a major issue at this school. The rules seem to be based on which parents have the most political pull within the school. Also, the curriculum is very outdated, even when a new curriculum is purchased, much like going to school in the 60's or 70's.
