Dr Howard K Conley Elementary School

I have a son in kindergarten and a daughter in fourth grade ant Tarwater. I have always loved the academic and social environment offered by the school. Teachers and administrators are engaging and supportive of students and parents alike. They genuinely care about creating an environment where our children can excel and thrive. The school offers a strong sense of community that extends beyond its grounds and I would highly recommend it to friends and family.

As a parent, I truly cannot say enough amazing things about New Vistas Center for Education. My son has been there since preschool and is now in first grade, and the growth we’ve seen in him has been incredible.The curriculum is exceptional, with a strong focus on critical thinking and individualized learning. He genuinely loves to read, write, and learn, which says everything. He wakes up excited to go to school, enjoys the structure and calm environment, and looks forward to playing with his friends at recess.What really sets New Vistas apart is the faculty. The teachers are not only incredibly smart, but deeply caring. Every child is truly known. No one is just a number. The small class sizes make a huge difference, allowing for personalized attention and support, and there is no ceiling on learning. Each student is encouraged to grow at their own pace and pushed to reach their full potential.I am beyond impressed with what my son already knows as a first grader. It goes far beyond what I expected. Most importantly, he is confident, curious, and loves learning.We feel so grateful to be part of this school and are incredibly excited for his future here.

I am an alumni and now parent of St. Mary Basha. The education I received from the school not only helped set myself up for success but left such a positive impression that I am proud to now send my children here. They have made great strides in technology, safety, student support and family engagement since my time there and continue to provide the students with tools they need to be smart and successful in this high tech area. I appreciate that they teach digital literacy from a young age while still maintaining a traditional approach to education. The teachers, staff and admin truly care about each and every student here. The principal knows every student (and I would say every parent) by name and has excellent communication with the families. She has personally responded to every email I have ever sent quickly and with a detailed, thoughtful response. There are plenty of ways to be involved in the school which allows parents to get to know the staff and other parents better and really integrate you into the community. The finance coordinator has been amazing at providing information with options on how to make our Catholic education attainable, especially for the PreK and kinder years. I am grateful to continue to be a St. Mary's family and highly recommend the school to anyone looking to give their student a Catholic education!
