I sent two children here, Kindergarten and 4th grade. My kids have only attended christian private schools,this was our first Catholic school. When we looked at the school I was assured that 60-70 percent of the students were not Catholic, and they were "accustomed" to non-catholic families. What I found was a quite proselytizing situation, with religion grade worked into the GPA, a music program entirely built for Mass performance, and my kindergartner was very confused as to what was presented as truth in the class.They handed out baby bottles to collect money for a right to life organization in Mass. I am against politics mixing with religion, and felt it to be violating. The kinder experience was positive academically, the 4th grade teacher screamed & used a whistle, &the boys seemed out of control. The principal is a poor leader with no apparent educational philosphy or vision.

I love this school my child will be going into his 3rd year this next school year. I love the Christian atmosphere and family setting. My child is getting a great education and his reading skills just amaze me. God Bless every teacher and administrative staff.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
