Parents are required to participate 40 hours a year in addition to yard duty, work party and additional fees. Class size in all grades is 36, with the exception of kinder, 30.

I have two kids who started at Saint Victor School since kindergarten and they are now in six and seven grades. SVS is a school where kids come first. The teachers work hard to bring out the best in each child. SVS is known to other schools for its academic performance and discipline the students have.

SVS is also engcoraging each and every student to participate in extra curricular activities. Teachers are giving up their time to teach seven grade in accelerated math and eighth grade in algebra to deserving students. The principal is in charge of the Honor Choir who have made a CD because of their outstanding performance. Thank you SVS for bringing out the best in my children and giving them the encouragement and confidence for life. Read less
