Ascension Catholic School

They will strip search your children. Looknit up. Its all over the news. They poor girl. Just imagine if that was your daughter.

Would not recommend this school. I’ve had a few issues with Sherwood school. I thought it would get better but it didn’t. Office is not good at communicating with teachers. They never seem to know what’s going on. Which this scares me if there were to be an intruder or an emergency at the school. Head start teachers are very negative and seem to be giving up. A few times a teacher has posted the wrong info on the Dojo app. Leaving all the parents confused. Teacher yells commands at her classroom aides. I’ve heard from other parents Sherwood’s staff was difficult and now I’m a believer.

Great school with excellent teachers! Kids are able to make friends easily.

Ive had so many issues with my kids being bullied screamed at by the teachers then get mad when I dont want my kids going here..... my daughters hair was cut twice here by her peers. And the teachers response was she did it herself.... I had kids in kindergarden 2nd grade and 6th grade none of my kids liked it their responses are ridiculous. And from what we have been through I wouldnt recommend sending your kids here. My children complained about their teachers not listening one teacher would scream most of the day my daughter said her head hurt when she got home also my daughter never has accidents but 3 times she ended up having accidents on the bus because they refused her to go to the bathroom. And she would have to hold it and couldn't. Ive been beyond disappointed with this school also charge me 150 just for them to ride the bus because we are 1.9 miles out from the school im a single mom of 4 and pay everything on my own can not afford that. Then they want to try to get me introuble with the law for them missing school..... also they would come home hungry everyday because they were not feeding them enough while at school then tried to blame me for it. Seriously no accountability whatsoever. But us parents are bad for not wanting our kids treated this way. I will homeschooling my children from now on....

Horrible school they need help and kids are getting bullied

Our experience at Verdi EcoSchool has been nothing short of an adventure. When our child began Kindergarten in 2019, their school year was halted by the pandemic, which presented challenges for all students. But at EcoSchool, we faced them together. The school pivoted quickly with creative ways to engage students, even during closures.Once things returned to normal, the school grew in both educators and students, while staying true to its focus on place-based learning. Verdi EcoSchool integrates the local community into the learning environment, allowing my now 10-year-old to be an active part of her community, something not often seen in traditional schools. Learning happens both on and off-campus, and students become responsible members of the community while mastering academic skills.The educators at EcoSchool are passionate and dedicated. They don't just show up for the job—they walk alongside each student on their learning journey. Students have a voice in their learning, gaining autonomy to guide their educational experience, but within the boundaries of structure and support.What I appreciate most is the focus on individualized learning. The school offers annual assessments to track each student's growth, and based on results, the educators adjust the learning plan to meet individual needs. With small class sizes (less than 10 students), each child receives the attention they need. Success isn't measured by grades, but by the learning process. Project-based learning is a staple, where students explore themes through field trips, research, and hands-on projects. Instead of exams, students lead their own conferences, guiding parents through their self-assessments and reflecting on their progress.The culture at Verdi EcoSchool is built on relationships, and conscious discipline is at its core. Families participate in ongoing training and workshops to implement these practices at home. Family involvement is crucial to the school’s success. Though it requires commitment, it’s a rewarding sacrifice. Families can volunteer in areas they feel called to, fostering a sense of service and modeling how to raise community helpers.In an ever-changing world, it's essential for children to develop a love of learning and problem-solving skills. Verdi EcoSchool combines traditional academics with real-world experiences, shaping students into problem-solvers for the future.
