If you are looking for Catholic school, this is absolutely the best school for your child(ren). We all expect academics to be above par at all Catholic schools and, yes, St. Andrew does have an excellent academic program. What separates this Catholic school from the rest is the true feeling of a community, the involvement of the church in the school. The church raises money for the school, the pastors visit the children frequently, the children attend 1st Friday mass, and 4th-6th graders get to be altar servers. Every mass is served by a team of St. Andrew students. It's not only the academics, it is who your children become that matter most when they leave this school.
Because we are family, caring, the best Catholic education, very well prepare for high school...... great school
I graduated from St. A's in 2008 and currently attend a Catholic high school. St. Andrew's gave me so much to prepare me for my life now. I attended the school since Kinder and I loved it. There I came to love my religion, my values, family, friends, service, and education. I gave everything into my life there and gave me even more in return. However, I think St. A's needs some more improvement. Camp Tiger has been lax and mild. Our academic program can help students more with orientation to high school. I did not know what were honors classes were until I registered into my current high school. I did not know that I needed at least one to achieve higher than a 4.0. Sports should also join CYO. In all, I loved St. Andrew's and it's better than most places in the area.
I considered taking my daughter out of this school and putting her in public school because of the cost, but I am just so impressed with St. Andrew's emphasis in math and reading for the early grades that I am committed to keeping her in this school along with her siblings. She takes home 1-2 pages of math homework a night and every night, she has to read 20 minutes and review a list of words to memorize daily (first grade). The smaller grades also have a t.a. and my daughter's class only has 23 students. I like the small atmosphere as well and I like how all the staff knows all the kids and families. Safety is also a reason why I chose to stay. And computer lab is great The only thing I wish is that there are more activities and a hot lunch program everyday.
