If you're looking for an elementary school that will provide your child with an exceptional education, while also fostering a sense of community and belonging, look no further. This school truly is a gem and a wonderful place for your child to learn, grow, and thrive.

If your child does not have an IEP, this is a good school. If your child has any issues at all or is on an IEP, do not attend this school. There is no support for sp ed students who are not cookie cutter (clearly only one learning disorder diagnosed, etc). Also, small town politics run the discipline, PTA, and room parents. So if your kid is not a perfectionist and doesn’t fit in, it is a terrible experience. Some teachers are supportive.

My 7 years old kids was dropped off in wrong bus stop and it was her second day using the school bus. Spoke with school rep, they told me that school transportation is separate entity they don't have control over transportation . School rep provided me transportation phone number, I called transportation they told me that 7 year old kid should know where to get off in their second day of using school bus. Bus drivers do not have list for the first few days of school where to drop off the kid. This mistake could have irreversible effect on parents and child if something would have happened to the kid. BIG trauma to kid and parents. FYI: School should have better coordination mechanism in place to force separate entity ((transportation)) to follow common sense guidelines.

I went to this school so I think I am one of the most qualified to rate this school. I went to Langley for all of middle school, and after a while I realized that if you were anything other then you were going to be ostracized. All throughout school, my friend group was struggling with bullying and the school counselor, while kind, did nothing noteworthy to help. This school appears to be good at safety, but I frequently ditched lunches, when the most security was present, and no one noticed. The teachers are very unwilling to compromise and meet students in the middle, even if they have disabilities, and a lot of the kids are very exclusive to new students once they identify anything different (straight white neurotypical male). Don’t go here, don’t send your children here, because it is not a good school.

my daughter attended St Luke’s for two years … i was extremely dissatisfied overall … the school had a horrible problem with bullying… the teachers are ok but the administration is horrible … the Priest needs to look into replacing the entire administration .. they are rude and very self serving… the school is very average when it comes to academics… the parents are gossipy which doesn’t help foster a christian environment… parents seem to be competing with each other to push their children ahead of the line .. although most of the parents at St Luke’s are mostly blue collar and low income families they like to put on heirs as if they come from money… again this works against trying to get everyone to work together… overall i found a lot of families competing with each other even though it’s really a low income school … no one really has any money there… so it’s kind of silly that they pretend and try to impress each other… all of that is a distraction to why the children are there… at this point i could not in good conscious recommend St luke’s to anyone… its a shame because i'm a very big supporter of Catholic School education.

the school is just a horrible one, no one really cares about you and they have a very hard curriculum. learning aps in middle school, no sport, no art!
