I think CEE is a great school. It is very diverse and has great teachers and a forward looking principal. Though the buildings are old, the students and the parents bring much to the school. Parents are very friendly and involved, very supportive of the school. There are various clubs after school

We are the proud parents of 3 Catholic East grads. Two have graduated from high school as NHS Honor Roll students and our 3rd is an NHS Senior. Our oldest graduated from college in spring with honors, and the second is right behind her. But, the best thing about Catholic East is not the high

It is a safe place that functions as a village with shared values and faith to help you raise your child as people of faith who don't just talk the talk, but walk the walk. It is Catholic with a big C and a little c. It is not only ethnically diverse, but , even more rare, it's economically diverse. Our children are comfortable with anyone! Read less

My husband and I are the parents of two children in the primary grades at Catholic East. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience so far. Our children have had the benefit of truly outstanding teachers. We have been so impressed with their ability to take four-year-old children and mold them

I chaperoned a field trip (the students have one every month)to Betty Brinn a few weeks ago, and was a little aprehensive that it might be kind of crazy (as it can be with my own kids!). I came away from that experience with renewed appreciation of the atmosphere of CEE -- it is filled with really nice kids, and really nice families. It has a great, cohesive and stable staff, superb academics (critical to us), a small diverse student body, all of which also reflectitsCatholicmission. Read less

The August 2005 parent review implied CEE combines its older classes. At this point, the 6th and 7th grades are combined due to small enrollment in the 7th grade. Once this 7th grade class graduates next year, CEE will return to single classes once again. This was a temporary solution not a standard

In addition to basic subjects, our children get instruction in Spanish, computers, art and phy.ed. They also participate in a citizenship program that covers different moral character traits such as honesty, problem solving, friendship and responsibility. My experience is that CEE is committed to shaping the whole child - intellectually, physically, spiritually and morally. It is a wonderfully diverse community and a true treasure. Read less

Mr. Patterson the Principal is really trying to make a difference. Unfortunately it is the lack of teachers, and students which make this school such a dismal learning environment. The fifth and sixth grades have been put together making it harder for the fifth graders who have now advanced into a
... Read more tougher grade without the knowledge. The seventh and eight are also combined and very often children are getting left behind in a subject because they are learning with students that are a year ahead. There is a very friendly atmosphere and parent involvement in the school, and the children truley seem to enjoy it. The teachers however, especially for the older grades, seem less than enthused to be teaching. The extracurricular activities are a joke. Read less
