Info
Our experience at STA has been great. I am disappointed that STA was a miss for one of the previous families. However, I think that all experiences both good or bad should be posted in detail. All opinions will better assist parents as they go through the school selection process.

I am a lower school student at St. Albans and I am very fond of it. I enjoy our family style lunch and for sports they teach sportsmenship before they think about teaching athleticism. The campus is the very big and nice. My teachers were great and my classmates were really cool. Looking forward to a ...  Read more

Like another reviewer wrote, St. Albans is a hit or miss.

My son loves STA. The academics are strong and my son gets along well with the other boys. Sometimes its the little things that make a school great. I love the fact that the boys in the lower school (4th-8th grade) eat a family style lunch together. They mix the boys up and rotate them approximately ...  Read more

I have two sons attending St. Albans who started in C Form (4th grade), and I've also worked for the Cathedral Schools. I've found that STA is hit or miss. My eldest son did well academically and socially in primary school and started wonderfully at STA but had a lot of difficulty by B Form. While ...  Read more

Our son has graduated from college (one of the top universities in the nation). When he was accepted at St. Albans in 9th I wasn't convinced it would be worth the money since we live in a suburban public school district with top schools. But, it was worth every penny, and every minute in the car ...  Read more

Our son loved every minute at St. A, going to Middlebury in 03. He was in the Boys Choir, theater, & never bullied. Indeed, St.A knows how to nuture boys when few schools do. He writes exceptionally well, attributable to St.A teaching, speaks 5 languages, felt constantly challenged and pulled toward ...  Read more

STA certainly maintains high academic standards. Nevertheless, if it is by far the best school in DC (as a reviewer mentioned), the DC private schools are in a sad state. STA has some great teachers and many great people among their faculty. But, especially in the upper elementary grades, many of ...  Read more
