Posted by a parent on 6/5/2025STA is a home for our children and our family! The community is wonderful! The teachers and administration are very welcoming and their lines of communication are always open to all families!

Posted by a parent on 3/8/2023Our family has been at St. Thomas the Apostle School for 3 years now. We couldn’t be happier. Our daughters love seeing their friends every morning and run in with them to their classes. As a parent you want your kids to love school and we can happily say that our children love going to school. The
Posted by a parent on 3/7/2023The school is amazing. Our family came here post-pandemic and have been welcomed ever since. Our children started in Kindergarten and in 2nd Grade at the time. I must say the academics are higher at times than that of public schools. If anyone is looking for a great school, with caring and dedicated
Posted by a parent on 3/7/2023The teachers here are awesome. Our children have learned so much since beginning in Kindergarten. Now as we get ready to graduate all I can say is it was well worth it!

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love Spring Garden! The teachers are incredibly dedicated and my child comes home happy and curious. The PTA is very involved and there are plenty of family opportunities. Every spring they do a Strawberry Festival which is a pop up carnival in the big field out back. I wish there was more racial diversity across teachers and staff but they do a good job on introducing holidays that aren’t only based in Christianity. We are very happy with our experiences! You are lucky if you are zones for SGS!Parent Review1y ago - Yantacaw Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBullying this everywhere. If your parents are not in the PTA or on the board as teacher. Your kids will not get special treatment. For example, one of these parents kids go and bully someone. They just over looked it. The principal is Asshle person, will never forget what he did to my son. This dude has no respect or care for your kids. He may act like it. But don’t have the full attention. He’s is just a con artist. I have many parents when my son was in school telling me things like if one of the parents criticize one of the teachers. He just blindly accept that the teachers are right. I don’t recommend this school district for anyone. There are so many bullying going on middle school and high school. I hear stories of High school kids threading elementary school kids. This school district is out of control.Parent Review1mo ago - School #9

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love this school. The principal is a phenomenal leader who reinforces and instills the values of kindness, respect and responsibility. The school is the model school for the PBSIS (Positive Behavior Support in Schools) which is a collaboration between the New Jersey Department of Education Office of Special Education and The Boggs Center, Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. The teachers are organized, responsive and believe in the importance of the parent/teacher collaboration and from kindergarten support a life-long love of learning. The parent teacher organization is active and supports numerous field trips/assemblies for the students. Our child is thriving at this school and we love the small class size/amazing neighborhood close to the library/playground.Parent Review2mo ago - Forest Ave School
