Read what parents are saying about St Martha Catholic SchoolIt is a wonderful school and we have been happy there for four years!
Posted by a parent on 1/11/2024This school provides Catholic education and allows our grandchildren to receive their sacraments.
Posted by a community member on 12/11/2023My child was bullied and teachers didn’t do anything. My child was dress coded multiple times because their necklace “was not religious” and forced Christian beliefs upon my child.
Posted by a parent on 5/1/2022Most awful ever and biggest waste of money !!! I thought sending my kids there was something to benefit them with religious and wholesome kids but most only donate $ to churches to get catholic discount and dont go to church and are mean and snobby
Posted by a parent on 4/13/2020I want to begin by stating that I graduated from St. Marthas and it is largely responsible for my conversion into the Catholic Church as an adult. If you know Fr. Fausto you know to "smile, because Jesus loves you." And he does, each and everyone of us. Unfortunately, it seems by the review below, some of the current parents at St. Marthas do not share the same beliefs I came to know. The belief that Jesus wants ALL of the little children to come to him. Not just the ones who don't require "step up" scholarship. The belief that Jesus is very much interested in Inclusion, and "ignoring" those who need help so they can afford to send their children to a school where they can pray and receive Eucharist, to "avoid conflict", is NOT a concept he bestowed upon his disciples. Jesus himself didn't dismiss diversity, he didn't tolerate diversity, he EMBRACED diversity. Look no further than to his own disciples and you will be reminded that Jesus used unique individuals with their own special talents and backgrounds to carry out his mission. If you are looking for a school that has all the bells and whistles-look no further. If you are looking for a school that is concerned with making strong leaders of the future, I do believe you have found it. If you read the review below and are scratching your head wondering, "is there a Loving Catholic School that also holds itself to the same rigorous academic standards where the true nature of Jesus Christ is known and adored,"might I suggest Incarnation Catholic School. ICS is not as fancy on the outside, but as the hymn goes "All are Welcome." Incarnation is more interested in creating followers than leaders. Followers of Jesus Christ that is. Creating "leaders of the USA" sounds great, but what about followers who live for the Kingdom? As for the parents who posted below, I pray your hearts are softened and that you come to the realization that some day some who are first will be last...

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI subbed for several years at this school, working almost every day. I got to be in all the classrooms many times over. This school is one of the best schools I have ever been in. I worked as a teacher for over 40 years in Special Education, in several states and several positions and can honestly say, that I loved working so much at Fruitville, I stopped subbing at other schools in the district and worked exclusively at Fruitville. There are many positives to say about Fruitville. All of the staff works very hard at making children feel valued and helping them to learn. The entire school participates developing a positive learning climate thru teams and special activities. The special education department of the school works to ensure kids can be assimilated into regular classrooms as much as possible to benefit special needs kids and to help "regular" children be more accepting of students with learning differences. The school climate is warm and nurturing. The school counselor is very involved with helping all students develop strong social and emotional coping skills. The staff makes volunteers and substitutes feel welcome and appreciated. While I worked there, it was like working with a big, extended family. I loved that school! If I had young children and I wanted them to go to a good school, I would pick Fruitville in a heartbeat!Other Review11mo ago - Sonhaven Preparatory Academy

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am beyond thankful for SCS. After being in the advanced programs at local public middle and high schools, we were hesitant to make the change and risk losing rigorous academics. We are so glad we decided to transfer to SCS. The academics are equally rigorous, but more importantly, our children have teachers who love and care for them. Students are encouraged to grow in their personal faith, as teachers model Christian character. Admittedly, the school went through a rough patch several years ago with a lot of faculty/admin turnover, but it is in very stable place. Teachers seem happy to work there, admin has a strong, supportive presence, parents are involved, and students are learning and growing. A new high school building is coming. The school has grown to capacity and with good reason!Parent Review1mo ago - Liberty Baptist Academy
