As stated in a previous posting, it is sad to say , that this principal's, and some of the teacher's attitude has become one of ,'Our way or the Highway.' After 24 years as a parent and grandparent of Q of H students, this last school year was a gigantic fiasco, especially for the 2nd grade students.
... Read more The communication between teacher, parents, and principal was just not there. Even though we all know it takes a village to raise a child in todays world, if you are a granparent your quetions do not count, you are made to feel second class, if you are acknowledged at all. It is very sad to hear parents and grandparents say, 'We will give this school one more year even though we are very hesitant to do so.' Administration and Some Staff need to practice the Three R's, Revernence, Respect and Responsibility. Read less

I have been involved in the school and my child has been in attendance for 5 years and if I could do it over I would have left after 1st grade. It has gone down hill more and more every year. The attendance turnover is very discriptive. The principal does not honor the hard work of the parents and keeps

Sister Mary Klersey is running the school from afar and knows nothing about what is actually going on. Sorry to disappoint you. Attend first grade and move on.. Read less

A very good school. It is a small school, this allows the students to build relationships with the other students and teachers. The 8th graders know the Kindergardeners. The teachers are interested in the students and care about their personal, religious as well as their scholastic growth. There

I have confidence that the principal will allow parents and teachers to voice their opinion, and take it into consideration, but not allow them to run the school. There are many programs out there that can be tapped to get extra programs for the students. I would like to get several of the parents to work on this as their work service instead of counting the field trips as work service. You should do these things because of your children not as service hours. Service hours should be done to help school or teachers. Read less

We have had 2 kids, 3 teachers and 2 principals at QoH and can really praise only 1 teacher. We are not sure on the newest principal yet. He seems to have the children in his best interest. With the recent changes, we feel that this principal is beginning to take control of the school, instead of the

We have been with Queen of Heaven for 5 years. I must say that I'm concerned about the shrinking student body and the continued tuition increases. However, our horrible experience at a #1 rated public elementary school will keep us from return to APS until Jr. High or High School. I'm willing to ride

This was my child's first year at Queen of Heaven. The level of work is definitely well beyond that of public school and was a challenge for him. That was what we wanted. Prayer in the school is also still present and appreciated by our child and ourselves. However, two complaints I have seem to

During the week, we were up until 9:30 or 10:00 every night trying to get it done. 2) It was virtually impossible to get a teacher to call me back. Unless I showed up in the classroom, I never got to talk to the teachers. We will continue to send our child here, but hope these issues are addressed. Read less
