I am commenting on the Upper School. Our children started at St. Gregory during their freshman years. We wanted them in a good school that was safe. Words can not describe how wonderful we think this school is. The headmaster is one of the finest human beings you will ever meet. Susan Heintz, the

The faculty members are incredible teachers as well as wonderful human beings.There has been very little turnover and both of our kids have had the same solid core of teachers. We are not wealthy but our kids have been treated just like anyone else. We have never regretted the money we have spent on this school. It has been worth every cent. Read less

This is a review for the Middle School. Our child was at St. Greg for the 3 yr. Middle School Program. Something is very, very wrong at this school. High, high, high staff turnover, no leadership.

This is a great school, and worth the $15,000 a year. It has such a friendly atmosphere, and with such few students, everyone pretty much knows each other and there is a sense of community. With small class sizes, the teachers (which are fabolous) make sure everyone understands what he/she is teaching.

They also have tutorial during the last 30 mins of lunch which allows students to go get help from teachers if they need it. St. Gregory is also very safe unlike other schools such as Sabino or Tucson. The only bad thing about this school is that they do not have football or cheerleading. But this school does a great job in getting kids ready for college. Read less
