Happy Day Pre School

This year was our first year attending St. Gertrude. Coming from the public school system I could not be happier with the experience. My oldest attending middle school has flourished and is now 100% comfortable talking to all his teachers, not only about school but about personal life as well. This has never happened ever in my childs school life, because he has always been fearful about speaking to teachers. He always brings up the fact that he loves that his new school is so small because all the students care about each other. As a parent I have not seen any disrespect from the priest. I like that he is direct with the parents instead of sugar coating problems. I have to say that he does have very high expectations for the students and his passion is for the students to succeed not only in school but in their faith as catholics. Therefore his involvement in the school can be seen by many in a negative way. Talking to my child about the incidient that unfortunately happened at school, he mentioned that he never felt disrespected or talked down to by the priest. That he actually felt safe because both the principal and the priest were involved to fix the problem as soon as it happened instead of not doing anything about the situation as in his old public school. My child also mentioned that this incident helped him realized that his teachers, principal and priest all care about the students well being. I WOULD 100% RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL TO EVERYONE!
