Am a 7th grader as of now, there are fights almost everyday and not only that but so called "gangsters" have gangs inside the school which is crazy to me. No one treats you with respect other than the teachers and racial slurs are thrown around constantly, in class and on the quad. Kids who don't fi
Posted by a student on 12/23/2024I am currently a student at Hoover and about to graduate. I highly advise not to send your student to this school. The principal makes students feel like they are under him and does not actually resolve problems. He whistles at students and refers to the school as his campus. There is near to no com

Posted by a parent on 6/6/2022It has come to parents attention that a teacher has been causing drama on social media between students (which has caused fights at school).

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am sorry to leave a negative review, but I wish I had read the reviews before enrolling my kids at this school. They attended for one year, and unfortunately, I do not have anything positive to say about our experience. The school feels more like a business than a place focused on education. The teachers, as well as the principal, seem very unprofessional. There is also a lot of bullying, and the school does not seem able to handle it properly, possibly because there are around 38 students in each class, which makes supervision and dealing with conflict (which is all the time) very difficult.In addition, the school does not offer any after-school activities or programs. Kids play and eat at the parking lot. Overall, our experience was not what we expected, and I would recommend that other parents carefully research before enrolling their children.Parent Review2mo ago - St. Leo the Great Catholic School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been at St. Leo’s since the Fall of 2014. I currently have one son in 3rd grade and one in Pre-K. Our experiences have been nothing short of wonderful. All of the teachers are fabulous and there is ongoing communication that makes it easy to stay up to date with what is happening in the classrooms. There was a change in both Principal and Priest this year and so far we have been incredibly impressed. The school leadership is fantastic and the vision for the school in the future is very exciting. I highly recommend checking out the school and church!Parent Review8y ago - Njeri's Morning Glory School and Art Center
