Read what parents are saying about St James Cathedral SchoolI am very happy with this school. My daughter is being challenged everyday in all classes. She is a very happy student with awesome grades. She loves her teachers and her Principals too.
Posted by a parent on 5/5/2022Quality of the teachers is just not to our expectation. As another user posted about, this was noticeable in mathematics and the school wasn't open to feedback. Expect a lot of non action on concerns.
Posted by a parent on 3/24/2020Academically the school is very good except for part of 4th through 6th grades. They use the same teachers there and only 2 of the four were quality teachers (one of them has since left). The Principle runs the school like a dictator who will side with her teachers in all instances (they never do wrong or make mistakes). She had an unqualified teacher try to teach math. Luckily I am good at math so I essentially taught my son that year. The Vice Principle is nothing more than a "yes man". I have seen them waste money on programs that are the "flavor of the year", and they are discontinued because they are ineffective. My son is now in 8th grade and we cannot wait to leave. My daughter will be going to another school. They are not the best school and all the catholic schools are blue ribbon so that means nothing anymore.
Posted by a parent on 1/14/2014If you are truly concerned about your child's education, no other school in Central Florida compares to St. James. The technology, language classes, arts, etc. are unmatched in the region. Our daughter LOVES it!
Posted by a parent on 1/6/2012We recently changed from another private christian school and wow were we surprised how behind the other school was until our daughter started at St. James Cathedral. Our daughter LOVES her new school and I would recommend St. James to all. The school is so organized and everything is very well thought out and structured. The teachers really want your child to succeed and is there to support the parents all the way. We thank God everyday for such a wonderful, beautiful school in the heart of downtown Orlando. Keep up the great work St. James!!! You are an awesome school!

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEvery time a student had an issue and the principal was made aware she would just say to the student you are ok. Send them vack to class. Very negative environment. Front clerk was rude and wouldnt be bothered to answer any questions.Other Review5mo ago - New School Preparatory

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a former student of this school and I can tell you that the teachers and the learning experience at this school are slightly above average. The kids at this school are terrible. The honor code that this school talks so much about does not exist. Kids will cheat their way through assignments, if anything this school will teach you that honor will get you used like a floor mat and that cheaters win. If you think this school will save your child from the abuse that a public school will give them, think again. If your child doesn’t behave like most of the other kids or like what most of the other kids like, they WILL BE ostracized. Save your hundreds of thousands of dollars and pick a better school.Other Review3mo ago - Windows Preschool

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur family has been at SJCS since 2015 and it has been one of the best decisions for all of us. Not only are our children getting a quality education, they are becoming good citizens who care for others. We have gained so many friends and have strengthened our Catholic faith too! I love our scHool and SJCS community!Parent Review1y ago - Lake Highland Preparatory School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter attends 6th grade at LHP and has had an amazing experience here. She has grown exponentially socially, emotionally, and academically since starting here at the beginning of her 5th-grade year. She is already thinking about which 4-year university she wants to attend and that's no doubt due to the culture of leadership and excellent education LHP provides its students from Kindergarten all the way up through graduation. We are so grateful to be at Lake Highland!Parent Review7mo ago
