I’d give this school 0.5, If most staff hate their jobs so much, they should retire specifically front staff lady. The way they treat you and not even listen to your concern should be really looked at. Communication should also be worked on.
Posted by a parent on 3/24/2026From 1 to 10. I would give this school a 0. It is the worst school in the district
Posted by a parent on 3/26/2019They are horrible. Low scores. Lack of communication. Incompetent and disrespectful staff members. The principal is never around, and the vice principal just seems to wing it. Their bullying policy is unhelpful. My kids wouldn't be in this school given an option, but there's no option, where you liv

My son has really fostered here and the program that he is in is outstanding. The teachers in class A are an amazing asset to this school. Overall, I would recommend this school!Parent Review9y ago - St Nicholas-St Mary's School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAfter many years at St. Nicholas St. Mary’s School I made a decision to remove my children. The principal has serious issues. He has taken away school events, caused teachers and faculty to leave the school, and treats parent’s/children’s concerns with disregard. I have watched numerous families leave due to bullying by him, parents in his clique, and other children. There are no consequences for bullying. He has destroyed what was once the one of the best catholic schools to attend. I watched somewhere around 60 families leave this school over the past year. God bless anyone who still attends this school.Other Review2y ago - United Hebrew Institute
