4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. The most of the teachers don’t care about bullying, or when people are getting made fun of right in front of them. I’ve noticed that teachers will let the kid get bullied not move the bully’s or try to tell them to stop they will usually just let it happen and report it later.In your a person of color and are not Hispanic I couldn’t not recommend this more. If your child is a person of color that’s not Hispanic I beg you don’t send them here they will get bullied horribly. This school mostly the kids aren’t told why things my using stereotypes and slurs are wrong so they just use them as jokes. They think it’s funny to yell racial slurs in the middle of the class. So I’m begging you don’t send your kids here.Student Review1y ago - Addams Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAddams is a great school that has been going through a lot of changes. They have great students and most teachers who truly care for them. My child specifically has grown to love school and in their own confidence! I would recommend this school to any one looking for a school to call home.Parent Review11mo ago - Marsh Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIt's a good school for the younger grades. Not as much when kids reach middle school. The staff is judgemental. It's quite noticeable that some teachers don't like kids or the profession they are in. It's unfortunate. Kids are exposed to some things that are unacceptable for a private school. Parents pay tuition for a reason. They want what is best for their child. It may be a Catholic school but not the Catholic way. Besides all the money they ask for. That's as Catholic as it gets.Other Review1y ago
