They don’t follow IEPs and the staff is not trained to support the needs of children with disabilities. They corral children to handle their meltdowns instead of supporting them to prevent that which causes children anxiety and PTSD. There is discrimination and they also deny services to children that need IEP/504 and consider them “normal” when they have an official diagnosis. Very disappointing.

maddux was a great school until 6th grade when my math teacher was rude and didn’t want to hear what the students say and also everything was great until the new principal came in and made all these rules that are former principal didn’t care about. they treat you like kids, not to mention they still came in and made us all sit on the carpet and listen to a book about kindness and friendship it doesn’t matter if it’s a good book or not we’re not 5 anymore and we are being treated like we are 5 and there all like “you act like your 5” but no we don’t we act like teenage kids. i loved going to school for so long and then 6th grade came along and it was the worst. the teachers act all innocent when principals are around but there rude like my 5th grade orchestra teacher. i wanted to do orchestra so bad and i was so excited but she made me hate it she made me quit for 6th grade. she told us it was time to go so i left and she yelled at us. maddux needs to clean there teachers up and teach them some manners because they talk about our attitude to them but when we show “attitude” we’re in trouble it’s not about adults and kids anymore it’s about what every adult says “treat others the way you want to be treated” i think maddux is a good school but if you want to have a great school you need to fix your teachers and stop talking about the kids behavior and start talking about the way teachers are treating students and calling them up in front of the class and making them feel bad about themselves and then THE TEACHER CRIES how can you cry after mistreating a student like that. and you can’t say this is an unacceptable review because your the one telling me to share my experience. so don’t let the teachers make you feel bad about yourselves

I am a former student of Saint Philip. Saint Philip really felt like a family to me. With such a small school, I was able to know each person by name, and develop close relationships with many of them. The teachers and staff know each person individually and did an amazing job preparing me for high school. Saint Philip has a lot to offer- from extra curriculars to academics to helping me grow spiritually and become a better person. Saint Philip has helped shape me for a better future and I will always be grateful!
