St John The Baptist School

I love this school. My child want to go and have fun while advocating a knowledge of the world. Love you

Hell it was horrible I got bullied there

St. Amelia’s has really gone downhill in the past few years. Was hoping this year would be better, but the principal is on a medical leave, a gym teacher fired, and another Kindergarten teacher just left. The turn over in administration and teachers is astounding! The people they have running it are less than impressive. Oh and if your child has an IEP, they barely follow it!

We have been very disappointed in this school over the last few years. The education has been atrocious, and there is 0 discipline. The administration does nothing to discipline the non-stop bullying among the students, which has caused many many many families to transfer just so their kids are provided with a safe learning environment.

We love this school and have chosen to keep both of our children here for middle school, even though they were both accepted to and offered seats at City Honors School. For us, that decision speaks volumes about the quality of this school and the experience it provides.What truly sets this school apart is its intentional, exceptional sense of community. We have seen firsthand how that strong community has positively impacted our children’s confidence, growth, and overall success. Students, parents, and teachers form genuine connections, creating an environment where everyone feels known, supported, and valued.Over the past six years, we have consistently found the teachers to be deeply invested in each child’s development—not just academically, but as whole people. The school does an excellent job balancing academic achievement and assessment preparation with the life skills and character development that help students thrive beyond the classroom.We’ve also appreciated the growing number of extracurricular activities, enrichment opportunities, and sports programs available each year. Our only wish is that the school extended through grades 9–12, because we would gladly continue our children’s education here through high school.
