My child said this school gives great equal rights and provides great education. Any child that may attend this school will be in great safety and hands in general. I believe that every child should go to this school, because it's clean and has very nice teachers.

Posted by a parent on 2/7/2018This school has not changed much in appearance since I attended in the 90's. My child went here from Kindergarten through 3rd grade. I had no issues with any of the teachers and it felt good that they were genuinely concerned and devoted to their jobs. With such a large student body it does take wor

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school has truly improved when it comes to staff, academics, and school culture. The current principal, Mr. Senatus, has spent the last 5 years truly transforming the building to serve the students and families.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere is a lot to like about this school including small class sizes, many caring teachers, and the (relatively) low tuition. But know that their stated commitment to diversity and embracing neurodiverse students is a lie. Numerous students have been pushed out in recent years because the school said they were unable to offer even minor supports for students. If your child has even minor challenges with ADHD, autism, anxiety, etc. be very aware that they can and will kick you out not because anything bad has happened but just because it’s “too much work” for their staff to implement supports that most public school teachers do in their sleep.Parent Review2y ago - The DePaul Catholic School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school doesn’t want to follow their own policy! And as a community we need to SUE and do what is right by our children. Being treated unfairly by teachers and staff is harmful mental for these children.Parent Review1y ago - St. Barnabas Episcopal School
