Holy Family School

This is a wonderful neighborhood school. The teachers and administrators care about and enjoy their students. The current principal grew up in Bridgeport which gives him a unique perspective. He does an excellent job of communicating with the families. The older students seem close-knit and supportive of one another, quite unlike my own middle-school experience. Most importantly, my recent graduate easily transitioned into high-school and felt prepared for the rigors of a freshman honors program.

This is the WORST SCHOOL I have ever sent my son to . I get nothing but complaints all day EVERYDAY about someone bothering / touching my kid . The teachers don’t care neither does the principal (she never solves anything just pushes it to the side) . I’ve been to the school on multiple occasions already for issues that they do not resolve nor wish to resolve . This school is a joke & I would NEVER send my kid here again . If I had to rate it out of 10 it’d be a -10000. I wouldn’t recommend even for the worst of children that’s how terrible this school is .

Overall this school is the best school ever.

Do NOT accept a lottery acceptance from this school. Only the teachers in this school really care for the students, the counselor even picks favorites, usually with the female students. The P.E. teacher only cares for participation and does not care if you physically cannot participate, or even for medical reasons. The teachers there is a lottery in itself, you could get an amazing teacher who really wants the kid to flourish, or one who doesn't care for your student whatsoever.

First year at this school. There is a new principal, after the long-term principal went to another school. Enrollment is very high due to the Coronavirus and the fact that the diocese never closed down the schools. This school is a great neighborhood school with teachers who care. I was very surprised at the amount of clubs and sports teams the school has. The students are taught catholic values and i'm so happy that my daughter is being taught about our great country and our heroes when so many public schools seem to be at war with the police and patriotism overall.

I wish we liked this school more, unfortunately my husband and I decided to enroll our daughter in this school thinking it was a better and safer option for all of us, she is not even a full year in and I have felt disrespected on many different occasions, even when I was walking my daughter in , we were 5 minutes late and the principal didn't even greet us, he told us we were disturbing his class and just walked off. As a parent, I think if it really disturbed his class then why didn't they schedule a meeting with us because we weren't the only ones who were late that day. On another occasion during report card day my daughter never received her report card and I approached the teacher and asked what was going on. I was told that they told her she couldn't turn the report card in do payment reason i had to go to the office and ask and they said they thought we didn't pay our tuition for that month, and everything was up to date. My family and I expected more and respect from this school, we don’t feel welcomed and we feel like our daughter is not included.
