St. Anne is an exceptional school with a very strong academic program that thoroughly prepares its students for the rigors of high school and beyond. I am a parent of three students who have attended St. Anne, and I currently have two students enrolled. My son scored a 99 percent on the High School Math

He was so well prepared for his very competitive high school that he is enrolled in all honors courses as a freshman and will begin his AP course work as a sophmore.
