This church is massive by today's standards. Think Renaissance Cathedral but it's not a Cathedral,…read morethe main one for this area is in Stockton. This church is a 2nd version of the original in downtown Modesto. The priests and staff are always friendly and helpful. The masses are acceptable lasting a little over an hour and the gospel interpretation applies to today and educational. They even have a 25 min. education for the young kids in the middle of mass! This reduces fatigue and restlessness for children. I knocked 1 star because it's often difficult to hear the main person talk. They tried to reduce this by adding carpets but the echo is prevalent and distracting. Apparently the architecture thought of mostly everything else other than how sound travels. Additional stain glass windows would have also been better.

Like many of us, I was so nervous to send my Covid-era…read morebaby out into the world and start his school journey, but from our first tour of the school, I started to feel like it was going to be okay. I was given very detailed information about what the program would entail and was able to see a class in session before enrolling. As my son completes pre-k in a few weeks, I have to give a shout out to Ms. Mayte and the team (especially Ms. Seena and Ms. Miriam) for all they have done for us. My son started the school year pretty shy and apprehensive and has blossomed into a bubbly and social preschooler. It's been an amazing thing to see. The school gives us regular updates throughout the week on the Brightwheel app and anytime I've had any questions or needed some time to chat, I would hear back from his teachers promptly. We get photos through the app as well that are always exciting. Sometimes it's a snap of playtime, a celebration, or completing a milestone and receiving kudos. Along with the basics of letters and numbers, my son has gotten to learn about different cultural holidays and has loved telling us what he's learned. He always seems to be doing a new activity and doing the half day program has definitely been the right choice for our family. Ms. Mayte took the time to really get to know our son and has been instrumental in all areas of his development this year. I can only hope that he will continue to have great teachers for the rest of his academic journey!

This is the church that I was baptized in…read more This church is over 100 years old. It is the "original" St. Stanislaus Church in Modesto. The new, & much larger one, was built in 2008, right next to St. Stanislaus School. And while 18 million dollars was spent on the new church, it seems that the old church has been strikingly neglected. While I now normally attend mass at the new church, because of a schedule conflict this past Ash Wednesday, we came here to receive ashes instead. When I saw the state & the condition that this church is in, I was genuinely saddened. Huge cracks in the paint, soiled & musty carpet, & dirty floors. Cleanliness is next to godliness. And dirty floors are an easy fix. But the interior itself needs some major TLC. Repair work, new paint, new carpet. It's still beautiful. But I wish it didn't look & feel so decrepit. Masses are still held here. It is very unfortunate that the upkeep seems basically non-existent. Still the first. And still filled w God. Please save it! Leaving a star rating seems sacrilege...

The teachers there do their job, they care about students, and they teach a good curriculum. I was a student here for my four years, class of 21', and overall I enjoyed it. The police department was not too far considering this school is a couple of blocks away from downtown. However, there's a bunch of druggies around the school. Homeless people, gangbangers, weirdos, you name it made the environment less safe. TLDR: good school, terrible neighborhoods.

After the horror in Orlando, like most people around the nation and even the world, I was…read moreprofoundly shaken. As a member of the GLBT community, and knowing the proliferation of churches in the area, I was expecting an outpouring of support and love to help the grieving. Sadly I didn't see much, hardly any actually. It may be that there were private, or less openly discussed events at religious institutions, but in any case my search did not prove fruitful. Knowing that the College Ave congregational church is GLBT friendly I contacted the church and was invited to the service. The pastor spent a considerable amount of time talking with me and helping me process the grief. Their Sunday service had a lovely memorial , and lit 49 candles for each of the victims and asked the congregation to keep them in their prayers. I know choosing a church is an intensely personal affair that resonates with one's sense of self , and one's sense of the world view. My world view is that everyone deserves love and acceptance , and more than that . Everyone deserves to be celebrated , not just tolerated and begrudgingly accepted. I felt that here. I felt that no matter who I choose to love and be with I would be celebrated. And that's important to me. And that's why I write this review. That if anyone holds a similar view , and after Orlando , is grieving ... this haven may be an option.
