Richland is an amazing school!! The parent engagement helps the school thrive despite being in a school system without a ton of support. We’ve had amazing teachers every year and my daughter has thrived there. We’ve also utilized the special education programs which have been amazing. I would recomm
Posted by a parent on 8/28/2025My children have attended a few Memphis schools (also Catholic/Private) Richland by far has the best anti bullying environment we’ve ever seen. When we had to change schools to Catholic, my kids were shocked how much meaner kids were and the amount of swearing (they never heard at Richland). It’s an
Posted by a parent on 4/21/2023Great school, the principal and the teachers are amazing!
Posted by a parent on 8/4/2022I graduated from Richland about three years ago. I think that overall, the school is great, however, I rate it four stars because of the cafeteria situation. There is something called "red cup," which is basically where you are not allowed to talk for 15 minutes and if you are caught talking, then y
Posted by a community member on 8/19/2021I rate the school a 1 star school because I have not seen any good teachers in the 4 years of having my children there. I hope every year it will get better, but it never does. It is new teachers every year and they don't seem to care. They move on to another school piggy backing off of the

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have had a wonderful experience at St. Agnes Academy- St. Dominic School. Our son is in his fourth year at the school and our daughter started this year. The sense of community has been a huge blessing to us. It is so comforting to know that our children are loved and cared for physically, mentally and spiritually. The school does a great job of connecting students of different ages and allowing them to learn from and support each other. Also, the student to teacher ratio provides an individualized approach to learning while in a group setting. It is such a unique school setting where we are able to have both our son and daughter on the same campus while catering to their different educational needs. Providing a coed experience and then strategically separating to all boys/all girls at pivotal times is one of the many factors that sets SAA-SDS apart. We love SAA-SDS and are excited to see what the future has to offer and how it is shaping our children into successful and well-rounded individuals.Parent Review3y ago - St. Mary's Episcopal School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a parent, you want your kids in a safe learning environment. Staff is always seen in the mornings and afternoons too, including the Principal. They are always engaged.Academics is definitely the focus, and it shows in their expectations. High expectations and focus is a good thing!This is why we’ve sent multiple kids to school here. Safety and academics are good…but having fun is important too. Even teachers and Administration dress up, get slimed, and make it fun for kids.If you like clubs and extracurricular activities, this place is for you too!Parent Review3y ago
