Mount Pleasant Elementary School

I I absolutely love this school. I read some of the negative reviews and find them misleading. First of all there are not numerous halls days a month. There is one half day a month which includes a mass. My family lives next door and go to public school and the amount of days my nieces are home is excessive. The curriculum : The school follows the same curriculum as Smithtown school district. My child does her homework with our family friends which are in the same grade. Both my daughter and my friends son do their homework together since they are on the same lessons. The other bad review is not hard to guess who wrote it. There is one mom in the school whom for the past 3 years have complained about everything from the kids, teachers and the way it's run. She also keeps her kids in the school for unknown reasons. Her one child has had behavioral issues and been reprimanded. I would never pout my child in any other school. There is a reason this school gets new children in during the school year and is thriving. I do realize not all children will handle small graduating classes , uniform and religion. My nieces need some extra help in their schooling and have sensory issues so this is why they need to stay in public school. Regular parent involvement is also a common practice in this school. I love seeing my children during their school day, from seeing interactions with other children and their friends. Some parents prefer to stay out of the school activities. That's fine but then this is another amazing thing about this school. Parents are truly involved. The principal is hands on and will handle behavioral issues. This school is wonderful. If anyone has any doubts ask the parents that continue to send their children here.

My daughter’s Kindergarten teacher has been absolutely amazing. Even during the switch to distance learning, my child’s curious mind has continued to blossom, flourish and stretch in many wonderful, meaningful ways. I’m so grateful that she is learning at a school that is committed to educating the whole child, sparking her creativity and critical thinking skills on a daily basis. I’m most impressed with my daughter’s ability to read at such an early age. Thanks to her exceptional teacher, who during an unprecedented time in history, went above and beyond and continued to instruct her students in such a personal, compassionate way while online. My daughter’s future is very bright at Ivy League School.

Smithtown Christian School has exceed my expectations as a parent. That is not an easy task! They are genuine and authentic. They stand firm in the Lord and that is beautifully weaved throughout the school. I love that they communicate in a transparent way, keeping families in the loop of happenings at school and in the community. They make time for questions and concerns! They not only support the student, but the family unit of their students. It's a wonderful feeling knowing that my child is happy and truly cared about. This is my child's second year attending, with favorites being STEM, Art, and lunch (the freshly made food is a wonderful option). Take a tour! Then once your family is a part of the SCS family, join the PTO for an look at the inner workings, or volunteer to be a class parent and see the wonderful things that God is doing!
