Please check into other schools before deciding on this one! I learned alot my first year here. I've also educated myself on the standards of other schools and this montessori school does not measure up in academics. Local private schools are reading and writing by kindergarten. When I voiced my
... Read more concern, I was told not to put added pressure on my child. My child is now catching up and the kids in her school are not overly pressured but learning and loving it! This school had cheaper tuition but i am paying for it in the end - tutors are not cheap! This is daycare not a school and the director is as bad as a used car salesman. Read less

Great academics, children advance as needed which is great to move ahead. Love the atrium weekly (religious ed), kids are saying prayers before our meals at home automatically and before bed. They respect one another and are mannerly. The administration needs much work. The principal is also a teacher.
... Read more The school is very small and no safe play are for the elementary kids. The teacher turnover rate is high but there are a few that have been there a long time. Not much extracirricular activities, spanish, band, or sports. The music program in minimal and not that good. No hot lunch provided must bring lunches from home. Parents must volunteer 20 hrs /yr. Uniforms are great. Read less

My child has done quite well in the Montessori catholic environment. The children are able to advance as needed without waiting for others, the ratio is small and the religious education was wonderful. My child has become respectful of others and grown spiritually as well as academically. The administration
... Read more however has much room for improvement. The principal teaches upper elementary which may make it difficult to run the school as well. The children receive art, PE (once a week), and music (singing) but have no play area as it is for the pre-kdg. The older kids must play in the pkg lot. Families need to volunteer 20 hours a yr with 5 of those going to the yrly fundraiser. The teachers are great. Read less

The teachers are great and really work with the students. The administration on the other hand is a different story. We have stayed in the school a couple of years because of all our child has learned, but it has been a challenge for us. If it wasn't for our child's teachers, we would have changed schools

I had my Daughter in this school for 2 years. The first year was disapointing. I unfortunately had her in for half days and I think she missed out on alot. So she was moved to full days at the end of that year. I felt this first year was a complete waste of money, because she was doing very little academically.
... Read more Last year she was in 5 full days. By the end of the year she was reading, writing and doing subtraction and addition. The first year the school would do little fun things for holidays, but the second was fraut with political and church correctness that the children were made to have a very lack luster year when it came to fun. As far as the principal is concerned, I have very little regard for her and her business attitude toward students. More kids equals more money. Read less

My child became an introvert while there and would beg not to go due to their Drill Sergeant ways. God Bless your child if it stepped out of line. They allowed my child to do the same thing every day and did with no direction to do something else. My child was so behind, I took him out within days

My child has been at St. Anne's since he was 3 years old. He is now 6 and we have decided to look into other schools. I think St. Anne's is wonderful for pre-K and K, but they still have some developing to do in terms of the older grades (not enough computers, Spanish, extracurricular activities, etc.).
