This is a fantastic school lead by a phenomenal principal. The community is supportive and welcoming.
Posted by a parent on 5/30/2020Amazing experience for both my girls. The teachers and Principal are caring and compassionate
Posted by a parent on 11/6/2017We just moved to Fanwood from another country. My 5 year old daughter is attending their Kindergarten program and she have shown a lot improvements. The teachers and the principal are very supportive. My youngest child can't wait to join her sister in this school.
Posted by a parent on 3/11/2013My 2 older children went to McGinn and overall, we loved it- with some less-than-great experiences along the way: a short-lived principal who was less than impressive, a particular kindergarten teacher who was not well-suited for working with kids of that age, and some parent politics that I didn't

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved at the beginning of the pandemic and my daughter is now in 3rd grade and is doing very well. I’ve been impressed with how well she’s done both academically and socially/emotionally. She has an IEP and has made tremendous strides in the last two years. Overall it’s a great community of teachers, kids and parents.Parent Review4y ago - Howard B. Brunner Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy oldest daughter started at Holy Trinity in kindergarten in 1999. We have put all 5 of our children through both campuses from Prek-8th grade. Our youngest is currently in 4th grade. Our older children went on to excellent Catholic high schools, and achieved success through college and careers because of the foundational skills they learned in grammar school that was enhanced by daily practice of faith.Parent Review7y ago - St Bartholomew Academy
