My son attended school at St. Anne's for 4 years the teachers and principal were truly loving and caring. The PTO is very active and as parents you are welcome anytime to visit the school. The drawback to this school is that if your child needs any sort of little extra help in school they will not get it here. It may not be all the schools fault, but maybe they just don't get the funding needed. There is no RLA program or arts program. There is also no cafeteria. For all the money paid for a private school why are we as parents still expected to bring glue sticks and tissue boxes into the classrooms? These are small things I know but it all adds up to what makes up a great school.
St. Anne's is a wonderful place for children to learn and grow. My three children and I love it there. The kind, caring attitude we work so hard to teach at home is just blossoming with their attendance at St. Anne's. The discipline and responsibility that is expected of them far surpasses what even Cy Fair ISD's best schools are asking of students (I know-I have an older child that's been through CFISD). A very positive place where the teachers go the extra mile to help even those students with learning disabilities (more than willing to work with special education services from Tomball ISD). Time and time again, teachers and staff have gone out of their way to be helpful to my family.
St. Anne is a great school with wonderful teachers and the best principal. She takes the time to know each student and their family members. She never makes you feel like your concern is not worthy of her time. Even when I had a concern the day before school started, she sat down with me, in the midst of a very stressful and crazy time for her and never made me feel rushed. I felt like my problem was the only thing on her mind and she gave me her full attention. I have heard many other parents say the same thing. Our girls love this school and we are blessed to be a part of this wonderful community and family!
All I can say about the parent who posted the review dated 10/30/08 is that he/she must not have worked very closely with the principal and admin staff. I have never known such an involved or hands-on principal who clearly loves each and every child in the school. In my book, she is the perfect principal with a hard-working and loyal staff. All four of my grandchildren are happy successful students at St. Anne!
If I needed only rate the teachers, I could have given five full stars. However, a school consist of many aspects in which all affect your child's well being and education. At present, we are reevaluating our decision to attend this school. We have lost faith in the principal and administrative staff.
St. Annes is a wonderful home away from home for our children. Our children are happy and comfortable in the enviroment provided by the loving yet firm faculty and staff. The education that our children are receiving is wonderful. The teachers are in touch with the students and the parents. It's wonderful to have the teacher give you a heads up on things that concern them and avoid the pitfalls that would inevitable happen without the communication. I love the enthuasim for education by the teachers.
