The current eight grade teachers Mr. Garcia and Ms. Brown are the best teachers there are. They prepare you fully for high school and the future things you are going to encounter in the real world when you grow up. I think if you put your child in this school you will not regret it.

I have a child in the Montesorri program at Holy Name School. While the program is good I find that some of the teachers in this school appear and act like people who have had no specific training in education. Another thing that bothers me about this school is that constant need to ask for money.

I think the Montessouri Program is the best. The school is great considering it is a bargain in the class of schools in the surrounding area. I just wish they exposed the kids to things outside of the school. I also wished they had avenues to involve the parents more (like having a PTA).
