my daughter really enjoys her school. the teachers have presented a good balance of challenges and review. The comments about the principle are spot on, but so are those about the PTA. Parents and teachers are involved and engaged in what is going on, funding is tight and what we don't pay in tuition

Bathrooms are disturbingly old and battered but have been clean anytime i've seen them. I chose this school over the local public school because the st. clare kids do in 1st grade what the public school kids do in 2nd. Discipline has relaxed with the current principle and is going in the wrong direction but has not been a problem in the 4 years my daughter has attended. Read less

School is going down hill. The principal leaves the school before all the children classes are dimissed. She does not know how to talk to the students or the parents. If you are not happy with anything and voice your opinon you are told to go to another school. There is no discipline. Most of the

The school is very disorganized especially the first day of school, no one knew where to go or which door for dismissal. Parking is a nightmare and cars are all over the place at drop off and dismissal, just a matter of time before someone gets hurt. School bathrooms are filthy and so are the waterfountains, kids have to go to the cafeteria for water. I can keep going on. Tutions is the best around Read less
