We have two children with very different needs. I've found the teachers to be responsive, thoughtful and creative, and the staff to be loving and helpful. The PTA is also very involved with the school, and I feel like it's an environment where everyone is supported to the best of their abilities. It's also adorable that there are CHICKENS on site.

Our family loves being part of the Atlas school community! Our four children have been enrolled for a year in preschool on up to 6th grade. We love the feelings of close community made possible by small class sizes and caring staff and families. We love the private music lessons during school hours, French and Spanish classes, the shorter school week, and extra time as a family. Academically, our children are given more flexibility to learn at their own levels with time spent more effectively learning, then playing with friends. They also get so many public speaking opportunities in small class settings and larger settings for the Fairs. Each child also gets to perform at the winter and spring concerts. We love the safe and supportive environment at this school where teachers care and work with families whenever problems come up. The Bakers care so much about each child and family and work to make Atlas a better place to learn.

At Cathedral some teachers and administrators genuinely care about the students and consistently show respect to all families. Those individuals create a supportive environment and set a positive example for students.At times, it felt like only certain students and families were truly welcomed and valued. The high principal turnover has also been concerning and creates a lack of stability. As a faith-based school, there should be more consistency in leading with kindness, fairness, and God’s love toward all students and families.Suggested Changes:Communication needs significant improvement. Staff could benefit from additional leadership, communication, and professionalism training to better support students and families.Overall:For the cost of private school tuition, families expect stronger communication, consistency, and treatment. Unfortunately, our experience in those areas was often disappointing.
