La Salle Academy

My children started at Cumru last year, and I'm disappointed. My children, third grade and kindergarten, were threatened by a first grader on the school bus. The little girl sent as far as saying "I'll bring a gun to school and shoot you if you telling me.". The administration was horrible in their handling of the situation. The girl continued to ride the bus and intimidate my oldest until, she's afraid to take the bus go or from school,and their was zero communication from the administration other than a "we received your complaint" note. My children's teachers were very good and deserve praise. However, I have safety concerns if this is an example of their idea of discipline.

We have had experience with a local public school as well as with St. Ignatius, and everyone in our family is in agreement that St. Ignatius is the right choice for us. The teachers, staff and administration truly care about students, and offer a learning environment that is rigorous, but not test-oriented. Teachers take the time to know and understand their students as people, including their challenges, skills and personalities.
