Posted by a parent on 6/12/2025Staff stress the importance of attendance when they allow students to use rude an horrendous language against students, let the special education students scream words more vulgar than I can say while the teachers do absolutely nothing, and they don't even allow students to bring items such as lunch
Posted by a community member on 9/2/2024The good teachers get censored and the racist and sexist ones get to control the curriculum. Can’t believe they have a male social studies teacher who won’t teach real history. The rest of their staff are excellent, for the most part. Most kids have special needs and there are no aides in classrooms
Posted by a parent on 2/29/2024Very dissatisfied. We are going to homeschool. Any child with special education needs, be prepared for lots pf tears, detentions for being "obstinate" when they cant do an assignment because they arent getting their needs met, and child/parent blaming
Posted by a parent on 12/22/2018School offers great athletic programs as well as academic. Teachers and administration are active in the student's lives and experiences. Annual recognition for academic achievement continues to promote excellence.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAll Saints has been a great fit for our family. While the Catholic underpinnings of the education were the initial draw, the small school atmosphere in a city environment is what drew us in. Our son thrives in small, structured environments where he gets the attention he needs to help him learn. It was important for us to find this and we were worried about him being lost in public school. All Saints has been absolutely amazing. All the teachers know him, they go out of their way to converse with him in the community and they care genuinely about each and every student. The prayer partner program has been amazing to see as our son, an only child, gets to work with a child in a younger grade to learn about the Catholic faith, learn to read and role model good behavior. It has been incredible to see the impact this has on my son as he feels great responsibility for his prayer partner. I have been impressed with the recreation and sports offerings as well, especially for such a small school- soccer, basketball, wresting, baseball, cheering, chess club, robotics, civil rights team. The school is a true community and we are glad we found it.Parent Review2y ago - Bangor Montessori School
