"Plenty of shaded streets and quiet neighborhoods. Most yards are already fenced. There is also plenty parks for your pup to run free. "

"Most of the people I’ve met are nice . The neighborhood has lots of character and houses can be really big and spacious. Honestly if there wasn’t so much drug activity I’d probably move in this area"

"People walk their dogs all the time, but a lot of the areas don’t have sidewalks. It’s getting a little dangerous to do it at night as well."

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child attended this school for 3 years. It's been a D rated school the whole time. Nothing has improved. There are no activities to motivate the students. No field trips. The so called field day was terrible. Communication is terrible. I send emails asking questions about my child's progress and there are no responses. There's no PTO. The teachers don't even seem to be motivated. For teacher appreciation week, I sent something for each of my child's teacher. My child was the only child in her class to give them something. One of the days she had given a candy jar to the principal. She opened the jar, took out the candy that she wanted and gave it back to my child. I thought that was so disgusting and unappreciative of her. If my child had to attend another year there, I would take advantage of the School Choice and move her somewhere else. I just don't understand why nothing is done to improve this school. I realize it takes more than the teachers. Parents have to be involved as well. This school and others like it are failing our students.Parent Review4y ago7 Reviews - St. Thomas More Catholic School
