My son is about to move onto Middle school and I cannot believe how backed up he is on his education. No cursive writing, multiplication time tests in the 5th grade, no learning how to switch between classes, never has anything new to say he learned for the day. And as I talk to my sister in law abo
Posted by a parent on 5/17/2019My daughter is currently enrolled in this school and I'm very disappointed in the teachers they've hired here. I've tutored/taught at a private school so I know how a classroom works. My daughter is in the 1st grade and her classwork is carelessly corrected. I correct her work myself when she gets h

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been a apart of St. Helen for many years. We have seen it go through many changes and all of them in a positive direction. At this point in time St. Helen has an excellent team of teachers that truly care and believe in what they do. I read another comment about parents being "cliquish" and even though I can see how they may think that, I believe there is a larger amount of parents that are great at this school. You can't judge all parents because of one group. I simply stay away from that set of parents and concentrate on working with all those other parents that have the same interests that I do, which is working together to keep making this awesome school even better. Kuddos to the teachers, the hardworking staff in the office and the principal. Those ladies in the office take care of our kids as if they were their own.Parent Review6y ago - St. Matthias Elementary School
