Posted by a student on 8/5/2020My son is in 6th grade at CMS and we have had a very good experience there so far. He is academically challenged and supported and is learning to navigate the complicated tween years.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageExcellent! The Spectrum team is superb- especially Ms Brown for 3rd Grade. The STEM as well as reading focus in TRES really helped my son develop his love for books and sustain his fascination for animals and the environment. We are sorry to leave this nurturing environment due to relocation.Parent Review5y ago - Chase Street Elementary School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter was at SJS for 2.5 years. I am Catholic and I thought this would be great for her during COVID. All was great at the beginning. We liked teachers and daughter progress this is until my daughter started experiencing anxiety and depression. She had a tough time of it, in a hospital for 2 weeks and had some difficulty with her medications. Because of her medications she got sick during class and also gained weight. The 6th graders (not all but many) took the opportunity to bully my child with pleasure (the definition of sadist). First just ignoring her during class, recess and any other events, then it got worse. We let the school know about this and how it was affecting my daughter anxiety and depression. Then we became aware of the name calling - fatty, stupid, vomiting noises and so on. This was done by 2-3 students while others just laughed or watched. While teachers and administration were fantastic in being flexible academically with my daughter's condition, the bullying continued for months. When we decided to home school because my daughter's anxiety and depression was only getting worse in this toxic environment, many in the class cheered when they heard my daughter was not returning. To put more salt in the wound, the week following they had an anti - bullying campaign with students at SJS. Students made promises not to bully - I think just lip service to the event. If this school was serious about a healthy environment and no tolerance for bullying it would:1) Train teachers and staff to identify victims and perpetrators2) Have a very strong anti-bullying policy3) Have a way to report bullying confidentially without retaliation from bullies4) Have yearly orientation with parents at beginning of each year on how to identify if their child is being bullied, the rights of child and parents to address, and what happens if the child is abusing others. I would like to see bully parents contacted.5) Counseling for the bully(s), class and the victim4) 3 strikes the bully(s) is gone if bullying behavior continuesParent Review5mo ago - Athens Academy

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been a part of the Prince Avenue Family for 11 years. We have been very pleased with the rigor of the academics, the strong spiritual education, the class sizes and overall safety of the school. My children have never wavered in their desire to continue to attend this school. They feel equipped to continue their education at the college level through completing both AP and Dual Enrollment classes. Our family has been active in the Fine Arts Programs and we have enjoyed watching them grow in confidence as well as skills. We would recommend this school to all.Parent Review1y ago
