St. Hilary School

"Budlong School has been a truly wonderful place for my child. As a parent of a child with disabilities, finding a supportive environment is incredibly important, and this school has exceeded my expectations. The nurses and staff are absolutelv amazing--kind patient, and always willing to help They treat my child with so much care and respect, and they communicate openly with me about everything. The atmosphere at Budlong is warm and welcoming, and I'm grateful every day that my child is surrounded by people who genuinely care."

I went here until I moved in 7th grade I saw kids vaping in the bathrooms and saw multiple fights and I even say two people making out and they do nothing about it I even saw a teacher agree with a person who was verbally bullying another person and made it sound like it was her fault and over there are the most toxic girls I ever saw they pretend to be cool but they can't even wear makeup properly.

The parent community is wonderful, however it is not the parents that are teaching our children during the school day. This school is very old fashioned, putting more value on student attendance than mental health. Teachers are strict in the way they expect children to behave within the classroom. My student has even experienced their teacher telling them they are not allowed to ask questions, not once, but on a regular basis. They follow a "this is the way I teach and you better learn this way" mindset instead of being open to the diverse range of ways children learn best. If your student does not learn the way they want they will be labeled as disruptive, even when they're just exhibiting age appropriate behavior. Communication from the school is lacking. For example, calls home from the nurse when your child has a rash but does not require to be picked up. However, if your child was pushed down the stairs by another student and goes to the nurse you won't hear about it until your child tells you. Notes home to parents in the student's assignment notebook instead of phone calls or emails to the parent for serious issues such as bullying. If there is a field trip you will only hear about it one week in advance. If you indicate you are able to chaperone the fieldtrip there will be no further communication with you on whether you are actually chosen to go.I would not recommend this school to anyone looking to raise an emotionally stable and intelligent child.

Just wanted Cynthia Peterson to know that Jonathan Zito had passed away May 23rd. He was a student there back in the 90's. Great school for both him and his sister Paula.

you don't want to pay for making your child sick..very poooor standards!! you can find better places for sure..

St. Philip Lutheran School did not meet our expectations. The overstatements on the website are misleading. Some of the teachers are unlicensed, the curriculum isn't academically rigorous and there are very limited enrichment opportunities. Not all of the teachers treat the students with kindness and respect. Mandatory fundraising fees and additional school fees are added to the tuition cost. Overall, the school does not provide good value for the cost. There are many private schools that offer qualified teachers, rigorous academics, and a truly supportive learning. environment.
