Great Job St. Stan's! I feel my children are getting a quality education in a safe environment. Very much like the changes and improvements made by the new principal. Yes... the tuition went up, but what hasn't - it is justified.

Most of the teachers are really good, but will subtly express unhappiness with the new principal and how they are treated. There is a great deal of focus on the younger children, while the older ones tend to be ignored. The new principal has eliminated with many of the programs that made the school unique
... Read more and as parents, we find it difficult to justify the ever increasing cost of tuition. Bullying is not dealt with promptly, nor effectively. The many Title 1 students, especially those in the upper grades, dilute and detract from the learning experiences of the children that can speak and read English. There are several children in the upper grades that can barely read at all, in spite of the availability of help. It is not a school that fosters friendship or student creativity, as it did in previous years. Art class is spent listlessly trolling the Internet. Read less

I went to St. Stan's as a child. And, I am proud that my son is now a student. The new principal has made a fantastic impact at St. Stan's- new curriculum, after-school activities, etc. I would not be surprised if there is a waiting list for St. Stan's within the next year.

I have two girls who are current students at St. Stans, Pre-K and Kinder. I couldn't have found a better school than St. Stans. The teachers are very communicative to the parents regarding the progress of the students and are very accessible to us. It was hard to find a challenging school for Pre-K
... Read more and St. Stan's has exceeded my expectations. Both my daughters are eager to go to school every morning, that reaction is hard to get from a child. I am amazed how the school is evolving by creating extra curricular activities for the children from music, ballet/dance, sports and academics. It is a well rounded school with a vision to grow and giving our children all the tools to becoming a successful person. Thanks St. Stans! Read less

My children are actually 2nd Generation Students as their father attended the school as well. When it came time for them to go to school, St. Stan's was it, no question. The teachers are wonderful, the principal is excellent, and the curriculum is challenging without making the children feel overwhelmed.
... Read more Each teacher knows every student by name, not just the ones in their class and go out of their way to help them with any problem they have, be it scholastically or personally. The staff and parents at St. Stan's are like an extended family. We have never regretted placing our kids in St. Stans, and even after they graduate, i'm sure we will all be there to assit around the school; that's just how much St. Stan's means to us. Read less
