St Joseph's School for the Deaf

my child has been going here for 3years now. each year a different issue. education wise, great for my child. when it comes to other stuff like bullying, classmates, teachers not the best.. last year my kid had a few classmates that always screamed in the class... it made issues when it came to learn, food, leave the school for home... year before bullying and my kid didn't want to go in the school.... . it's a very clean school. staff are mostly friendly. I'm not sure how it would be for a kid who need extra help. if you child is good with learning, I wouldn't worry. the rest can be fixed.

This elementary school is a vibrant, nurturing place where learning comes alive every day.My son says the teachers explain lessons so clearly that every concept “just clicks,” reflecting their dedication to true understanding.Their passion for teaching shines through in engaging activities that spark curiosity and joy.They genuinely care about each child’s emotional well-being, knowing every student’s strengths and growth areas.Best of all, they team up with parents, turning that insight into personalized support that helps every child thrive.

This school won’t tell me anything about my kids and my kids keep coming home saying that they are scared

I would like to start off by saying if you are a person of color do not send her child here. Complete waste of money & time. My 5 year old child was denied food at lunch. Students must pay for lunch each day or sent with food from home. She was sent with money to purchase food , when she went up to buy her lunch she was told she needed to pay a balance and would only have enough a bag of chips. I escalated this matter to the lunch company and the administration, I was it was “ handled “ when I asked how they gave another apology and said it wouldn’t happen again. I received little to no communication about my child’s academics throughout the school year until I requested a parent meeting because I noticed she was making very little progress and I did not hear any concerns from the teacher. The academics are way below district , at least for elementary school. The focus is fun & sounding out letter for the entirety of the kindergarten school year. The school community and environment is not inclusive at all , there is no mention of Black History Month, when my child asked her teacher the response she was given was “ you can celebrate at home “. This place is not designed for people of color and they make that known and felt. I would not recommend this school to anyone and looking into further action.

One of the worst schools. Kids are not being taught what they need to know in very common subjects. The school has no resources for the kids to grow and learn. Very poor and little stem learning and activities for the kids. Very disappointing of this school.
