Infant Of Prague Catholic School

My daughter has been going to MCS for 9 years!!! She started as a toddler and is now in upper elementary in the 5th grade. My daughter is thriving!! The teachers here and the Montessori Philosophy have instilled a major love for learning in my daughter. From a young age she learned what it meant to be a leader and a role model. I see this now as she visits the younger children to read or share one of her projects with them. She loves it and they love it. She is so confident and I attribute this to the teachers willingness to let her dive deep into subjects that she loves, to offer opportunities for collaboration and innovation. We had the most 2 difficult years personally and the one constant for her has been this school which feels like family to her. She has excelled here, even skipped a grade because she finished all the materials in the lower elementary classroom. MCS offers individualized education based on where the children are. I am grateful to all the teachers and staff who commit their time to creating an environment that my daughter absolutely looks forward to going to!

Our youngest son attended St. Anne’s from preschool through his completion of second grade. During this time he was also undergoing severe bullying outside of school. In 1st grade our son needed a little extra help and his teacher worked with him after school every day! During this time frame my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and then I was too. I had the peace of mind knowing our son was at St. Anne’s and he was still learning and given extra support and affection. Our son is now 11 and in his first year of middle school. He’s in advanced classes and we believe this is do to the foundation that began at St. Anne’s. I have read some of these reviews and am puzzled because I didn’t see any cliquish negative behavior in 5 years. And no, I wasn’t part of a clique. My son was there to learn, go to chapel and thrive in a safe environment. My only regret is that the school only goes to second grade and we would have kept him there if they had third grade and higher programs. We are grateful to St. Anne’s and have fond memories and respect for the effort the director and staff put into the children and school.

Both of my kids attended JCA from K4 to 12th. I am so thankful for the teachers that poured into my kids and prayed for them. If you're looking for a school where your kids can grow academically and spiritually, where they can interact with other Christian students and learn in a small classroom environment, where they can have an opportunity to play sports , and where the staff pray over your kids and genuinely love them, JCA is the school for you! Best Christian School in Onslow County BY FAR!
