THIS SCHOOL HAS THE WORST SET OF ADULTS WORKING THERE . There LACK THERE OF TO UNDERSTAND THE MISSION OF HELPING CHILDREN IS NOT THERE !!!!! All THEY DO IS COMPLAIN AND BEG FOR MONEY FOR THE PARENTS OF THE SAME STUDENTS THAT THEY DO NOT WANT TO HELP !!!

At first, this location seemed fun and a lot is done for the children as far as events and themes. Down the line, I had a terrible experience with this school and know others who have as well. My child was mishandled by a counselor and it was seen by someone who called me immediately after the occurrence. I demanded to see the tape and saw that the counselor flipped my child upside down and took my child off of the slide as they were crying. My child has a sensory disorder and communication delays were addressed with the staff prior to enrollment. Even for a typically developing child, this was not the appropriate way to handle one. Additionally, there is an overflow of campers within the summer program and it does not seem like there is enough support for the volume of children in each group. There is no receptionist, just a school nurse who handles all administration and payment processing. Counselors were typically overwhelmed and encouraged to stay outdoors for most of the day. There are a lot of other testimonies shared with me about the school director and staff, but I am sharing my own. I would not recommend anyone to send their child to this school for many reasons. At the very least, visit a few times and take a look at the environment prior to deciding on enrolling your child.

We’ve had such a positive experience at St. Helena School. Even though it’s a Catholic school, it’s a welcoming place for kids of all faiths, which makes it feel like a true community. The teachers go above and beyond to ensure every student succeeds, and you can see the care they put into their work. Our child has thrived academically and grown in so many other ways. We’re so grateful for the academic excellence and the warm, inclusive atmosphere at St. Helena. It’s a place where kids are encouraged to be their best selves, and we couldn’t ask for more.
