Community Reviews
We are having a fantastic experience at Bradford. Wonderful teachers, welcoming community and a lot of support for whatever challenges your child might have. It feels like a real win to be able to have my child at this school.
Posted by a parent on 6/2/2025We had high hopes for Bradford but the education was mediocre, the PTA is barely engaged and new kids struggle to acclimate well due to "clicks" (in 2nd grade). There is also a significant imbalance male / female ratios - far less girls in the glass than boys. The teachers appear to go through the m
Posted by a parent on 1/19/2018My children have attended Bradford since kindergarten, and my oldest will be finishing up this year! We have had a truly wonderful experience at the school, with many great teachers, a terrific principal, and an engaged and friendly community of families. When my kids have needed extra support of wh
Posted by a parent on 9/10/2015This school is highly overrated. The teacher quality goes from extremely high to extremely low. Those who are on the low end lack pedagogical skills and probably should not work with kids at all. The principal builds the school ratings with a lot of "sweet talk" and only takes actions if it fits her
Posted by a parent on 3/3/2014Our son graduated from Bradford. We were more anxious than he was about sending him out into the big World to for Kindergarden, but we were quickly put at ease. His time spent here being nurtured and developed was truly magical, and he scores in the top 2 percentile now in Middle School; Our daughte

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averageancient curriculum and teachers -mostly - are incompetent with technology/computer use. school leadership is erratic- 2 principals in the 3 school years with the most recent one leaving abruptly and interim principal is oblivious to current and urgent needs of students including safety. bernadette miglin as interim principal is oblivious to parking lot safety and chaos at pick up—with parents fighting and blocking each other’s cars and continuing to allow other cars/parents to safely park and pick up at busy streets. school is more worried about mandatory fundraisers that god knows where and how they are used coz they definitely bare not for curriculum and school improvements. old computers still. textbooks are more than 5 years old and disheveled. avoid this school at all costs. i wouldn’t be surprised if they shut down soon. the interim principal bernadette miglin is unchrist like for sure, she is more worried about girls wearing leggings on non uniform days! way to sexualize these girls for wearing leggings. she does not deserve a paycheck from the diocese. she is useless!Other Review1y ago - Lacordaire Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy experience at this school has been great! we left another Catholic school because there was so many kids bullying other kids and the principal did nothing to help it! when my kids moved from Holy Spirit School in Pequannock NJ and came to this school I never realized that they were so far behind! Everyone here from teachers to the principal helped get my kids back on track!Anyone that lives near Holy Spirit School take the time to make sure they are teaching what they should be. if not its worth the travel to go to St. Philip Prep.Parent Review9mo ago
