"They are community events but not for the African Americans such as my family which I feel there should be more recreational activities for the kids in the community no matter what race they are to give them something to do so that they can stay off of the streets and out of trouble "

"Although Paterson has a bad rap there's a lot of positive culture and history here. From great restaurants of all nationalities to unique nature like the great falls to happening nightlife Paterson has or all. With any city there's good and bad neighborhoods but it's worth a visit. But would I move here? No. And I say that because the cost of living the tri-state area is ridiculous compared to other parts of the world. However if you want an unlimited amount of opportunities financially, this is a prime location."

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLove this school! The principal is such an angel! I also love the staff in this school! There is one small problem that my child complains to me about. The art teacher in this school is very rude to kids. My child said shes nice but rude sometimes. When she is rude she screams at them and makes comebacks to them if they say they forgot a material. My child comes home every Thursday telling me she screams at my child. My child told me There are no other teachers in the room during the art period. Every other teacher is very nice my child says. I just wanted to report about the specific teacher here at st Gerard Majella. Overall this school is fantastic, and my child will attend this school until she graduates!Parent Review2y ago7 Reviews - St. Mary School
