"VERY SAFE AND SECURE TO LOCATE---EVEN FOR A 5 YEAR MINIMUM. LOCATION IS ADAPTABLE FOR ANYONE NEEDING A POSITIVE RESPITE. ALWAYS COMFORTABLE, LIVEABLE, LONG OR SHORT TERM. AND CAN UPGRADE TO HOUSES FOR EVEN A BETTER LIFE SITUATION. SO VERY MUCH FAMILY ORIENTATED OR INVESTMENT WORTH. TOO MANY ACCOLADES"

"There are many dog owners. There is a large park nearby to walk the dog. Most dogs owners pick up after their dogs. The streets are busy and a highway is nearby therefore it very important to keep a dog leashes. "

"There are many walking parks, beaches, and stores in this neighborhood. I have lived here fir 20 years and have enjoyed myself with my family. There’s easy access to I-95 & Hutchinson River Parkway as my east access routes to many other parkways and highways. There’s a great diverse population that are both friendly and hardworking. Public transportation is only steps away, and there are so many stores, schools, libraries, and so much more. "

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school was honestly a terrible experience for me. The building felt dirty and poorly taken care of, and there were constant cleanliness issues that made it uncomfortable to even be there. The food was really bad, and it felt like nobody cared.It also felt like students with money were treated better, and if you weren't white , you were ignored or judged. As a proud hispanic, I often felt uncomfortable and unsupported.There are barely any sports or activities, so there’s nothing exciting or motivating about the school. Overall, it felt unfair, stressful, and unwelcoming. I wouldn’t recommend this school to anyone looking for a positive or inclusive environment.Other Review4mo ago38 Reviews - Greek American Institute Of New York

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy girls attended this school from Pre-K to 8th grade, and it was a wonderful experience. The teachers, fellow parents, and administration were always there to listen, help, and in general felt like a family to us. The education level is quite advanced.. . meaning we noticed that kids from other schools in parallel grades had not yet learned or mastered the things our lids were doing with ease. In addition, polite and respectful and mature behavior was expected . . .and received . . .from the students. Run, don't walk, to get your kids enrolled here.Parent Review8mo ago23 Reviews - St Francis Xavier School
