Just recently enrolled son after leaving another catholic school that we felt did not treat my son fairly. St. Roberts welcomed him with open arms, he was only there a week and what a difference it made. The kids were so accepting of him, the staff was wonderful and so accommodating to us. The Principal

The new teacher called me and let me know how my son was adjusting, saying nothing but positive things about him. I am sad to say he has to leave for circumstances which are out of our control, but with that being said, they tried to help us stay in. If you choose this school for your children you will never regret it. Only regret leaving as we are absolutely heart broken. Read less

I would disagree with the April 15, 2008 post. I did go through financial difficulty and a divorce. St. Robert provided a source of stabilty for my children and were very supportive of and helpful to my family during that difficult time. Each person's situation is unique. However, I found that by keeping

I think if you are looking for a quality education and an environment for your children to develop a strong sense of community and helping others, strongly consider St. Robert. You only need to look at the dedication of the parents and the enrollment of alumni children, as a testament to the positive environment of St Robert. Read less

I had attended this school for 8 years. After my family was harassed by the, now, principal, I was finally able to leave the school.
