Earlier this year, the church was fabulous. There were confessions every day before a mass and the…read moremass was held in the big church. Now they have removed the confessions during the week because it's "too hot" and and cramming everybody in the adoration chapel for daily mass which discourages parishioners from attending. I'm not sure why you would lock the huge church that you have and force everyone in the Adoration Chapel for daily mass. It really isn't a good look to have people crowded, standing room only and uncomfortable when it is preventable. And I have stopped attending this church for these reasons and have found other Catholic Churches to be more accommodating for their parishioners.

IMO Donna Lauro and her staff ignore concerns raised by parents, and the lacking quality of education means students have massive catching up when they get to high school. Many parents and teachers have left for better schools.

My son is in his second year at Ingleside, and we love it. I truly believe he is getting a…read moreworld-class education here. He's been able to advance to the math level that makes sense for him--he's a 7th grader in Algebra--and I really appreciate that they try to get kids into a math that makes sense for where they're at. I also think they have a very decent set of electives. For instance, he's taking Forensic Science--which he loves--and he's signed up for Public Speaking/Debate in the spring. The principal, Dr. Michael, is both inspiring and very hands on. The teachers are experienced, and they seem to enjoy teaching kids this age. My son had a concussion at one point, and literally every single teacher was incredibly understanding and gave him significant time to recover and get caught up. We were very grateful. It's worth noting: to limit opportunities for bullying and misbehavior, the time between classes is tight. Middle schoolers are expected to take care of and speak up for themselves. So if someone needs water, they should bring a water bottle and fill it in the morning and at lunch. This means they have to step away from their friends for a hot second, but they figure it out pretty quickly. All in all, my son is getting a great academic education and he's learning to manage his time and speak up for himself with teachers. I'm very pleased with his experience and growth thus far! Please note: our experience is with CGP, math and electives.

My experience at this school was more than disappointing. I transferred here in the near ending…read more(February) of seventh grade along with some other students. Almost everyone at this school had no personality, like they were all copy and pastes of each other. Almost all the girls were blonde even if it was bleached (probably just to fit in), or the typical modern preppy, the boys however had the biggest egos I have seen. Almost every student and teacher made me feel very unsupported, overlooked, and constantly had me stressing over my appearance, and my style. The teachers were very dismissive, inconsiderate, inattentive, and overall just unprofessional. One in particular teacher was my science teacher Ms. Hains, she would constantly support the bullying of one certain student, even sometimes making rude comments to and of this student for absolutely no reason at all. Yes, I know teaching is and can be very hard but it absolutely does not mean you can take out your frustration on to your students. One of my other teachers even said that bullying should be brought back, although I know this could be a harmless joke to some, but for the people who have experienced actual bullying would not have found this funny at all. Sometimes I would go days without showing up just because of how mentally draining this school was, and when I would return NO teacher would ask how I have been, or maybe why I was out, not one single genuine concern for me. I would even go to school every single day feeling so anxious that I would sometimes throw up in the morning because of how overwhelmed I felt. I hope that I never ever have to go to a school like this ever again, I wouldn't even wish this on my worst enemy.

She has suppressed countless extremely dangerous issues, such as one specific student who I will not name. He is an active danger to literally everyone. Everyone. This student is violent, abusive, and I find myself scared of my own safety when I'm around him. One of my closest friends was one of his victims. She is one of the strongest girls I know; it makes me sick when I think about how he violated her, stripping her of all autonomy. There are several other problems -- cough cough, Mrs. Parker -- cough cough. Yeesh. NSAA is seriously a wonderful school, but I am scared for my life most days.

My daughter attended NSAA from 2016 - 2020. While she has been out of the program for a few years,…read moreas she is processing her CPTSD we are only just learning the extent of what she endured at this school. First, I'll address--as others have--the disregard for student safety. The security is lax, the teachers and students spread among multiple buildings with only text communications between administrators. In an emergency situation, this would cost lives. Further, there is no nurse or medical support on site. The lockdown procedures were traumatizing in and of themselves. Years later, our daughter still has nightmares regarding these events. The biggest safety concern, however, is the administration. Our child, whose passion is art, attended Ms. Parker's drawing class. This teacher singled out certain students to bully. If others stood up to her, they were punished or added to Parker's naughty list. Parker also belittled students' art: critiquing styles that drew inspiration from other media; or simply telling students, "It's wrong," or "do better" without any direction as to what was wrong or how to address it. Our daughter wanted to give up art. This was conveyed to the Dean and the teacher, however, nothing changed. The most egregious issues involved the ESS program--a system for neurodivergent students. Our autistic daughter was evaluated and placed into the ESS program under the direction of J. Silva. Over the course of many years, Mr. Silva ignored our IEP guidelines by pursuing ABA therapy even though we repeatedly refused it. He also pushed us to utilize an Autism center that not only promotes/uses ABA, but one that Silva also had a personal/financial stake in. He constantly said that he cared about our child but he couldn't be bothered to say her name correctly. Much of my daughter's trauma stems from a mishandling of the most severe issue we experienced with NSAA. An older female student began stalking our child, including following her to the bathroom and peeking in on her while she was in the stall. When this was brought to Silva and the Dean herself, I was told the other student and their parents would be notified. When I asked how this was not in violation of the school's sexual harassment code, I was told nothing could be done. We insisted that the stalker (also in the ESS program) NOT be placed in classes, testing rooms, or therapy with our child. We were ignored multiple times. The stalker was not only allowed to spend the entirety of testing trying to pass notes to or interrupt our child, Silva (acting as proctor) this acceptable, he tried to turn it into a teaching moment that my daughter could use to "show grace." The problems only continued. The stalker was put into therapy with my daughter. When she--understandably--did not handle these sessions well, the "therapist" would use our child as a "teachable moment" for the other student in how not to respond--but only after both the therapist and student laughed at her. NONE of what happened in these sessions was relayed to us by Silva or others and our daughter was acting as traumatized children do: being silent for fear of retaliation. As we navigate our daughter's mental health journey, we have been informed that not only was Silva/NSAA unethical in their handling of neurodivergent needs, some of these actions are quite illegal. TLDR: My daughter has CPTSD due to her time at this school. None of it had to happen, and now her life is irrevocably changed. The people at this school who are supposed to care for these students do not. While there are teachers who are gems of human beings who truly care about the kids, the administration does not have your child's best interests at heart. NOTE TO PARENTS: Be the squeaky wheel. Stand up for your kid. Loudly.
