Our family's relationship with St. Greg's began last year when my eldest daughter began K4. Even though we live in a high ranked school district, we couldn't be happier with St. Greg's. We now live father away, but would prefer to do the commute than have our daughter attend elsewhere. St. Greg's

The teachers are wonderful, and I love how the principal is outside every morning waving at students and parents while assisting the children in the crosswalks. Boo-bash is a fun yearly event the kids love. Too many schools lack in social things like that which are important to the kids. Our other daughter will start K4 next year-can't wait! Read less

I'm an alum of St. Greg's currently in high school. I personally think St. Greg's was a great school. They have great academics, of which I still use today. The teachers are really great and they do really reach out to the students to the best of their abilities. They tend to now be fully aware of every
... Read more conflict going on between students, but that's normal. Only thing I would have changed is that they would have educated me more about other religions, so I was a little more informed in high school of what other people may or may not believe. Also 7th and 8th graders have very short time to eat/socialize, I found it difficult to get through the day with only a ten minute break in between at that age, but overall I came into high school very prepared. I would highly recommend it. Read less

Terrible school, i attended from k-8 and along with many other kids in my class were subject to unnecessary harrassment and racism from other students(i'm one of only 2 blacks to ever graduate from st. Gregs). And the teachers are absolutely narrow minded and unhelpful, it wasn't until i got to highschool
... Read more that i finally started to get good grades most in part because the teachers at st. Gregs had no form of in school disipline to deal with failing classes. I was recieving f's in 4 classes in 6th grade and was still allowed to play sports and participate in school sponsored activities!something not allowed at many local public schools, and furtermore the teachers were not of any help to me educationally or socially and many other former students and their parents would tell you the same thing. Stay clear of this school Read less
