St. Aloysius Elementary School

My child went here and I would not recommend anyone to send their child here, they be better off going to public school. Most teacher at LCCS do not seem interested in their students. They seem more interested about leaving the build rather than teaching my child. My child was a part of the special Education and I have to say those teacher were the only true teacher that cared about my child. Those teacher watched out for my child even if my child wasn't in their classroom or wasn't their student. With other teacher they do not care about my child some of them watched my child struggle and having a hard time in their class and did not care. One time my child had been struggling in science and had ask for help, the science helped her but then blamed her for "not listening" to the teacher during the lesson. Which was 100% a lie she was listening and even took extra note to make sure she had all the info. meanwhile the special education teacher truly knew if my child was ok or not even if she was smiling. And when my child as enrolled in the school a student was not so, smart and did a dumb but VERY unsafe thing and the school didn't removed that student but rather put that student into online school for LCCS. Lucky that student was smart and removed themselves from the LCCS community. LCCS truly need to do better in the school the only good part of LCCS is their special education.

Its not right what the teachers do to black kids when black kids do something they say something mean and yell at us but when someone white do something they do nothing.

This school allows bullying so plea keep your children from this school .. the principal is very sarcastic and very disrespectful.. the stuff in this school don’t know what there doing . Kay minus is a very disrespectful woman that is willing to take way your child for no reason. This school need a new principal because everything with them is very much backwards. Me and other families strongly feel the same way about this school which is PS17.

The best Islamic School in New Jersey

I have two girls going to Primary Prep. One in the second grade and one in a toddler's program. My second grader started at Primary Prep in Kindergarten. She loves her school and all the teachers she had so far. My two year old loves it too and has not cried once. I love the fact that it is small but very diverse and also very affordable compare to other private schools. All my daughter's friends are from different backgrounds; Russians, Indians, Filipinos, Koreans, multi-cultural families, LGBT families,,, all in her small class of less than 20 kids!I wish the school has more progressive educational method with more outside recess time and nature oriented learning experience but I knew going in it is more traditional school. My girls are doing exceptionally well and sometimes I feel my older one needs to be more challenged but what is the most important is the loving and caring environment and she definitely has it at Primary Prep. Also Mrs. Hoffman and all the teachers and staffs have been amazing during this pandemic. The school has been open with in-person classes this whole year with a very few closes and we also have virtual class options. Even in the beginning of pandemic, school came up with structure for virtual classes very quickly and ran smoothly. All my friends who moved out to suburbs with the best school districts continue to suffer even to this day. I have to say, Primary Prep's tuition is much less than my friends' property taxes in the suburbs. This is the best hidden secret in Jersey City!
