My son went there and the level of bullying was enough for us to pull him out after numerous attempts to have it stoped. It was an awful exsperience, after what started out as a good one. He finished High school on the Monterey Penninsula and we could be happier we moved.

I moved my daughter to St Pat's from an elementary school where the students weren't the problem but the ACSB adminstrators was. Where they were relying on other students to mainstream fellow students. Apprently they didn't have the staff. What I was after was a fair and nicer place. St Pat's is

By standardized scores my daughter has increased from the top 10% towards the top 2% on standardized test. And she has yet to be the top student in any class. 'It's hard with all these smart kids'. But more importan its a really nice place with great teacher who care. And for those of us not gifted with social butterfly's but nerd's, its wonderful. Read less

NO other school compares. These kids test out in the top 10% in the nation, and are #1 in the NATION in Algebra. The teachers are loving and care about their student's success. Computers in every room, full tech lab, music, art, spanish, and p.e. as well as competitive athletics.

We love St. Pat's. My daughter really loves the teachers who make a strong effort to make sure all of the children are included and there is no bullying. There was one teacher who seemed to favor some students over others, but she is not there anymore. Sarah was not at the bottom of her class, but not

They suggested pulling her out to work with her ( and they have the AR system) but I took the advice of another mom and enrolled her in tutoring to not take away from core classes (Huntington for those interested) Another great thing-strong parent network.

My son currently attends St. Pat's and he loves it. My husband and I are very pleased with the educations he is receiving, as well as the good Catholic foundation they are providing him. Although it is costly, we believe the sacrifice is worth it. If you want your child to receive a sound academic

Our son just started at St. Pat's this year in PK3 and so far we have been impressed enough to enroll our older daughter at St. Pat's for next year. We plan on sending all three of our children to this school. Our son, the one in PK3, had been dependant, sensitive, and frequently whiny until he started

We already see the positive signs of a faith based education in him. He knows the sign of the cross and when to use it appropriately. He also uses his manners all the time without prompting now. He's still our goofy, mischevious little boy but St. Pat's has helped him learn a little self-control and respect for others. Read less

I recently pulled both my children from this school. Although St. Pat's touts itself as a 'Catholic' environment, it was anything but that. There are some good teachers, but their arts, music, computer programs are woefully inadequate. Their sports programs are a joke. This is not a 'Catholic' environment

My children went here for 4 months before I pulled them out. My kids practically came home crying everyday about how bad it was.

This is a great school. The principal leadership recently changed, but the new principal is adapting well. The teachers are great, generally loaded with enthusiasm and with a clear sense of Catholic identity.
