NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOne of the worst schools I've ever experienced.Where do I even start?My son and daughter had a good experience up until grade 4. Kindergarten and graded 1-3 were excellent, one of the best learning experiences a kid can have! But after this is unfortunately goes down-hill. Saint Andrew brings in affordable beginner teachers witb little to no experience in education. The most qualifications they have is usually teaching kindergarten the year prior. More than 90% of these teachers are unmotivated and act like they don't even want to be there. Every now and the they'll make a horrible side project that they put no thought in to and give us a due date (usually is due two weeks later.) I will give teaching 2/5 just because of the exellent teachers that are outweighed by the weak ones.From what my kids told me, they never are excited to learn anymore. The teachers literally don't care about your child- maybe that's a stretch, but it sure seems that way.Social-emotional learning is pretty bad too. If you need your parent to e-mail a teacher about help in class or anything similar to that, the teachers then proceed to breathe over you and act like your helpless and or oblivious to the unit/lesson. They don't act normally.Now moving on to safety: it's only okay. I was told that my kids have a habdful of issues with lunch and recess. The two periods before your linch time are purposley set to 50 minutes instead of the usual; 45. This is because they want to decrease time from lunch and recess time. After your 50 minute period, it takes 5-10 more minutes to get back to your homeroom, pack up for your period after lunch, and the pray abd walk all the way back downstairs to the cafeteria. By the time you arrive, you have a MAXIMUM of 20 minutes to eat. So, using your common sense, you would make the choice yo immediately go up and buy food to quickly eat. (because they don't let you eat at recess either.) But no, one of the degenerate lunch conselors tell you to hold back until enough classes have been called, which eats up about three more minutes. Even then, you may have to wait for you ger kids to buy lunch before you if they arrive just a but later than you do.In regards to punishments, it is done harshly and lazily every single time. Wagner does not at all make an attempt to crack down on the 1-5 kids that caused trouble in the cafeteria. Instead, she decides to punish the entire grade. By taking away recess, the kid's only excerise for the entire scho-Parent Review3y ago6 Reviews
