We love this school and are so thankful to have found it. I think academically it is one of the best in the metroplex. Because of the small class sizes, the teachers are able to meet the individual needs of the students and determine where they need more challenge and where they need a little extra help. As great as the scholastics are, we've found that its the warm, caring and Christian environment that makes the students here different. They have a kindness and confidence about them that shines through. My children love participating in the chess club and school sports. We've been here for 5+ years (since preschool program) and have no desire to go anywhere else.
This is a fantastic school. I have two children attending, and plan on the third one starting when he is old enough. The teachers care about the development of each individual child, and due to the small class size, they can help with any learning differences. The moral enviornment can not be beat and I appreciate knowing who my children are making friends with. Academics and character development are both important, this makes for a very well rounded child. The money for a private education is worth every penny, it is well worth the investment at this school. The parents are very involved and the administration is open and willing to discuss any issues.
Great school with fantastic teachers. Preschool and kindergarten teachers were helpful and took kids on a great journey throughout the year. Love this school and would definetely send all of my children here.
My child was a former student at St. Vincent's. I had written a review before, but for some reason it was removed. I do agree with they have fantastic teachers and academics. Their chapel is beautiful. Love their garden. However, they do not incorporate biblical teachings into any of the academics and contrary to what we were originally told about being non denominational they are definitely very traditional Episcopal. (including having all the kids drink out of the same cup for eucharist, etc.) If you are considering this school and not Episcopal, better check out the chapel service first.
I have been at St. Vincent's for 9 years, I am about to graduate from 8th grade, and leave for high school. St. Vincent's has prepared me greatly for high school. The students are all very kind and friendly, as well as the teachers. Everybody is like a big family since there are not very many people. It is a very small school, but it is very prestigious, and very nurturing to each individaul student. It is a very safe environment in a nice part of town. Everybody gets to play any sport they want too, no try outs. Even with such a small school and few athletes, St. Vincent's has accomplished many sports championships. St. Vincent's offers co-Ed tennis, co-Ed soccer, girl's volleyball, football, girls and boys basketball and co-Ed track. You can start playing sports as young as fourth grade.
Great school, but pricey. Higher than most other Christian based prechools.
I am a proud student at the wonderful St. Vincent's School. My first year at SVS was pre Kindergarten ,and I am now in 8th grade. SVS shows you how to be a leader. I wake up every morning excited to go to school. St. Vincent's is like a 2ed home to me.
ST. Vincents is an excellent school. My 2nd grade child is learning the equivalent work of 3rd grade in public school. In addition, they learn manners, such as opening doors for adults, community service, that they would not get in public school.
St. Vincent's is great school, with a wonderful envrionment, and wonderful teachers. A great community.
My daughter is in her 3rd year at St. Vincent's. She is currently in the second grade. We have really enjoyed her being in school at SVEC. It is a wonderful, loving environment for children to learn in. Our daughter has exceled as they challenge her academically in a small classroom environment. She has had more one-on-one interaction with the teachers as her class size has never been larger than 12. She has also enjoyed their enrichment programs in art, music, computer, and spanish. We have also never had any problems with her peers. The children all get along very well and respect each other and the teachers. The school starts each day with a 20 minute chapel time which helps children start their day focused on God. I do wish they had biblical teaching incorporated throughout their curriculum. However, they choose to focus on academics and market to all beliefs.
