7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school has gone downhill over the years. There are hardly any school events, surprisingly high statistics of bullying, not really any arts or sports programs, and education has been mediocre. Not sure if its the change of administration, or if its a small school so there are lack of activities, but being that its a small school, you would think there is more control. Safety has been an issue.Parent Review10mo ago - Bright Beginnings

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am so disgusted with this school!!! First off the school does not have a gym for the children so they are asked to pay $60 every quater to go to the YMCA ... shouldn't that be included inbtuition?! Secondly....the school year ends 6/13/14 and they want to collect a full months tuition...NONSENSE! The teachers for the most part are good....but this school and the leadership....hot mess!!!!! Not a happy parent, needs better structure and leadership!Parent Review10y ago - Immaculate Conception School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWith the exception of a few, the staff was detached and generally uninspired. Very strict attendance rules with lunch detentions that affect a child's ability to participate in school activities or receive honors, despite having an average over 93. Staff is not stable. My son had 4 different ela and math teachers in 1 year. Also, teachers can be very rude - and that comes from the top down. Principal is not sympathetic and cares more about perception than reality. We left after 6 years because the Principal became intolerable.Parent Review1y ago - Rising Stars Islamic School
