St Mary School

The staff of EC has helped my sons transition to a new school. They also hae a team of teachers helping my oldest cope with social issues. They are strict and run a tight ship, but students are challenged and learn in interactive and interesting ways. It's fair to say my sons have grown intellectually.

Very disappointed with admin at this school. Along with some teachers not treating students in a fair manner.

i would not reccomend this school! the staff are always trying to diagnose kids and get them medicine for inattention. the school needs diversity. it also needs to be cleaner. the staff dresses casual everyday.

This school saved my daughter’s life !!! Excellent school and the teachers were incredible . Thank you for giving my daughter the tools for a bright future

The Montessori method is a great approach to teaching children. MSOR has no business being in contact with children in any capacity. I have witnessed first hand issues for other families and experienced numerous unacceptable challenges for my children. The owner has no background in education but thinks very highly of herself (and will tell everyone, whether listening or not). The staff are beyond incompetent - not a surprise based on how the place is run. The *only* reasons my children stayed for a few years were the teachers (we were blessed with GREAT teachers) and the global pandemic. Our teachers were fantastic and operated in spite of the owners tyranny. Our friends and neighbors did not have the same experience and left rapidly. When parents have questions, issues or concerns the owner and staff do not listen and help - they turn the situation around on the parent even taking it as far as recommending you find another school (over minor discussions).They talk of community but it is fake. This “school” will certainly fold in a year or two. Teachers are leaving left and right (half left before this year started). Don’t take your kids here. You cannot trust them with your children.

I’m surprised by the grade given by the state. I have kids in this school and a neighboring district and see a huge difference in Anna K. My experience as a parent has been so much more pleasant with the staff. I feel my kids have had their needs addressed and supported. The love and the way they care about families has been amazing. The facilities are much nicer than the other area schools. There’s new technology and resources available at Anna K. I wonder how much of the poor grade has to do with Covid related things that just couldn’t be helped? As a parent I fully recommend Anna K and hope to get my last elementary kid in there and away from the other school soon.
