The school has many issues. They force their religion on the students. In my experience students feel the teachers give work and never teach them. Teachers are too strict. Teachers expect students to teach themselves.
Posted by a community member on 10/23/2023This school DOES have issues. I try to ask my teachers for help on my assignments but it isn't very helpful, they don't help me with anything and sometimes don't even acknowledge me, it has horrible school lunch, people are disrespectful, the teachers have low educational professions, and they need
Posted by a community member on 3/16/2018Like the poster from Dec. 6., 2010, below, I am an alum who went to Maryknoll from K-12. It was a good experience back in the 80's. Things have changed dramatically, sadly. First, in my frequent meetings with alumni, virtually NONE have chosen to send their own kids to Maryknoll. Second, it's pretty
Posted by a community member on 7/3/2015Here is a reason to rethink applying to this school. I just submitted a K-12 online application. The admission application states the fee is $75 and $90 for international. I am a local resident and was charged $90. After calling the school about the discrepancy, I was told that there is a flat $90 f
Posted by a community member on 11/24/2014Maryknoll School is a wonderful educational institution. As enrollment falls in many private schools, Maryknoll continues to grow. To those with negative comments about Maryknoll School, maybe it was not the best match for you or your child. Maryknoll can't be everything to everyone. My experience w

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMCS has become a second family to us and our two children. It is truly a special place where kids learn independence, confidence, skills and knowledge, all while having fun and feeling a part of the community. Reading some of the other reviews, it is disappointing to hear that a couple people had negative experiences. I believe these to be very specific, isolated cases, as all the other parents we talk to absolutely love the school and administration. As parents we feel very supported by the teachers and administration. All of the teachers and staff know us and our kids. We have touchpoints with them every drop-off and pick-up and they always make themselves available if we have concerns. There is a full time counselor that is a valuable resource. If we have a concern -- even if it's a behavioral issue at home, the counselor will help support us and even do observations of the child in the classroom if it is something we want. Montessori method has also proven to be an amazing, timeless way to engage and teach children in an intuitive way. We would highly recommend this school!Parent Review1y ago - Playmate Kindergarten, Day Care

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf your child fits neatly into a box (very compliant, never challenges what the authorities tell them is the answer, has no learning differences, needs no accommodations) then this is a great place for them. The school prides itself on being experts in elementary education, and if you and your child don't love everything they do and (at least pretend to) thrive in this "magical" environment, they will make you feel like something is wrong with your child and often find a way to push you out. They talk about being so welcoming and inclusive to everyone, but what they mean is that they welcome a very specific type of child and family and are not really interested in making room for those that they feel don't fit neatly into their "perfect image". It's a bit heartbreaking to see how they have made some families feel like they don't belong.Parent Review3y ago - Our Redeemer Lutheran School
