NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love SRB. From our first day with Mrs. Fernando we knew this would be our home. Our son loves his teachers, all the fun school activities and all the students. Everyone is so friendly and the bigger kids mentor our little ones. Our school is also active with our Parish and they participate in family mass, alter service, choir, etc.. we also love the school community. So many great families. Come for a tour! You’ll love it too.Parent Review8mo ago - Bonnie Academy
