Our concerns centered on student safety and the school’s response to repeated peer mistreatment. Our child experienced ongoing negative interactions across both classroom and extracurricular settings. These included public embarrassment in front of peers and physical incidents that deeply troubled u
Posted by a parent on 2/23/2026SAA has been a great environment for my two (very different) children. I love the holistic approach to learning and focus on the whole child. Accelerated academics and opportunities for differentiated learning are provided, but the arts and social emotional development are also an important part of

Posted by a parent on 4/10/2019We had a great experience with the school. The school is made of dedicated teachers and staff, heavily involved parents, and smart kids. If your kids are learners, and you as parents are worried that your kids may not get enough education at your local school, go give SAA a try. For us the tuition,

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageKG is suppose to mold a student and give them a first good impression and confidence to make kids want to keep going to school. Well about 15 years ago my child was in kg. That KG teacher at Our lady of destiny that was there made my child not feel safe or want to go to school. Thankfully we realized it on time and we transferred to another school where the teacher made a huge impact on my child and helped my child grow. My child is now at a d1 big ten school both on academic and sport scholarship. Thank you to that one new teacher at her new school who as she recalls transformed my child from a wilted flower to a blooming one. The teacher at Our lady of destiny was my childs main bully and allowed other students to bully my child. Nothing was ever done. What a shame children are suppose to feel safe at school. If I could give it 0 stars I would but the app won't allow it.Parent Review4y ago - Guardian Angel Orthodox Day School
