St Joseph Elementary School

The best elementary school in Mandan! The principal is an outstanding leader and the teachers are passionate about seeing their students succeed. They are so great about sharing moments of pride they see within your child – their good behaviors and achievements; and they know the importance of getting the parents involved should an issue arise, and do it in a very respectful, approachable manner.

Please look at other schools. This is the worst school we’ve had the misfortune of working with. They have no internal accountability and want to blame everyone but themselves. They are not helpful or good communicators.

This school is like a family and continues to broaden its offerings to its students. From chess club, book club, parent nights and other activities, they are proactive about giving opportunities to help increase learning in their kids. The teachers and staff are kind and are passionate and dedicated.

Excellent! This school is small and personal, teaches religious values and is the only Montessori elementary in the area. Montessori has been found to be more effective than traditional or common core learning and CTK takes that to a higher level with the individual attention each student receives.
