Stuart G Ferst School

We have been sending our daughter here, and she loves it. We’ve been impressed with the academic rigor. Her teacher has been wonderful and we feel administration is communicative and responsive. Great neighborhood school!

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 Hilary School is an amazing school and a hidden gem in the North Park neighborhood. The school is warm and welcoming and very diverse. The Principal, Mrs. Kathie Donovan, is dynamic and incredibly engaged in every facet of the school's operations. We have been especially impressed by the music and art programs, which includes both band and choir. The teaching quality is superb, which is also supported by small class sizes and a great student-to-teacher ratio. Our son is in second grade, and we've been very happy with his teachers every year so far. Attention is also given to incorporating current thinking in pedagogy and curricula, and just last year they incorporated new flexible seating. Our son also attends aftercare, and he participates in the Super Soccer extracurricular program. Sports offerings include volleyball and basketball programs for girls and boys. The Family Student Association (FSA) plans regular activities and opportunities for engagement. Overall, Catholic/Christian teachings are evident especially in the spirit of kindness and service present in this school.

Overall the school has a really good curriculum as seen through Iowa tests results. Good Islamic and arabic teachings as well this year.
