Jamesville Dewitt High School

My son has so far studied there for K and first grade and both of his teachers were/are excellent!

I went to this school in Kindergarten, 2nd Grade, and 3rd Grade. (I went to France for 1st Grade). Kindergarten, 1st Grade, and 2nd Grade was nice. But 3rd Grade was not. Seriously? Why I am not allowed to hug anymore?

Our oldest child started at IC in PreK, we loved it so much that we decided to continue to send her for the rest of her elementary education along with our 2 other children. At the time, it was on my commute home from work, it no longer is, however, after her and our family’s experience at the school, we kept our children there. We live on the opposite side of the county and make the commute twice a day because the school community and the quality of education cannot be matched by any other parochial school in the diocese. I am a public school teacher and have to navigate negative comments from my colleagues and I’m 100% willing to deal with it. No public school can match what my children are receiving educationally, socially, emotionally, and of course spiritually. I would recommend this school to anyone, whether they are Catholic or not. The school’s reputation is very positive because what they offer and provide is unparalleled by other schools.

Holy Cross High School is grappling with a significant bullying issue. The school’s principal, lacking any formal education in the field, is ill-equipped to effectively address and manage this problem. Furthermore, the teachers’ professional demeanor is lacking, as evidenced by their miserable attitudes and the way they belittle their students. This lack of supervision, particularly during recess, leaves younger students vulnerable to potential harm.

Manlius Pebble Hill is highly ranked and recognized across the State of New York and nationally. Teachers focus on every individual student and devote time after school when needed to assist those needing a bit more personalized attention. Getting good grades are not what teachers want most out of their students, but it is to ensure each student truly learns, develops, and grows from their time at this school. As someone who had learning disabilities, I was especially impressed with the dedicated approach this school took to helping me excel - not just walk but run academically towards achievement. The school environment takes bullying very seriously to ensure every child feels psychologically and physically safe.
