St. Catherine School

This place made my daughter scared of going to school because of the teachers. They called me over some gum saying that she spitted it out. I was in a meeting about I almost got fired because she would not stop calling until I picked up the phone. This school is bad the kids swear at you and it is so dirty and the principle Ms. Richardson is so annoying and so confusing.

We have been part of French Immersion for 6 years now and it has been a great school for my family. My 3 kids are speaking French and enjoy it tremendously! We value this school in many ways. I only have good things to say about my experience here. If you are looking for a school with fantastic teachers, great after school programs, and parent involvement, this is the place for you.

As a parent of a previous student at MCP 36th street I believe this school is doing a phenomenal Job in the Milwaukee area in developing academically sound and character driven scholars. Immediately walking into the learning environment you can see a unique culture that is very distinctive and academically driven. The classroom teachers and administrators are very accommodating in putting their scholars first, adding joy in the classrooms and paving a road to college by opening doors to some of the best high schools in the Milwaukee Wisconsin area.

My son has been at this school since k-4,now he is in the 3rd grade. He has had wonderful teachers and he learned a lot.

The individuals who work here show favoritism. It seems that they like the disobedient children more than the - obedient ones. The defiant ones get rewarded but the respectful ones barely get the recognition they deserve.In addition to favoring the defiant ones, they also favor those with ties to a staff member or a student's relative. You could be a straight-A student with perfect attendance and only get credited for it at a ceremony that they only have three times a year. If you're a defiant student who is always in detention, ISS, or suspended, you'll be highly liked by others and get rewarded for small things. Even better if you know a staff member well or they know you well. There is always a situation with their staff being unprofessional. They don't handle bullying the way they should. The same students who are known to be disrespectful or mean towards others are still attending the school, even after multiple disciplines. If a student is visibly struggling with their mental health, instead of trying to help them, they try to push them out of their comfort zone and that is not the way to approach that. They rarely have a ceremony or meeting about bullying, they just brush it aside by simply disciplining the student instead of actually trying to understand why they’re doing it. You even get in trouble just for defending yourself, and if you’re not someone they favor? They don’t even try to listen to you. If you don't want your child to be under stress 24/7, do NOT send them here. This place absolutely disgusts me and I despise it with everything within me. It is still the same way it was years ago.
