I based my rating on MaST 3 .. School is unorganized, my daughter isn't learning anything but play…read moretime...she's a third grader they're doing PSSA now and half the students are disruptive. it's sad when my daughter says "please take me out of the school because I'm not learning anything and take me back to Mariana Bracetti Academy" The rave reviews about the school ,I thought I was fortunate to get my daughter in there .the grass isn't always greener on the other side;hopefully she can get into maST 1 but number 3 is trash. I'm starting to believe they're treating the outside neighborhood kids differently than they do the kids that are from that neighborhood prove me wrong

the only reason I'm writing this review is because of the nurse. she is rude, generally…read moreunorganized, and barely does anything. she refuses medication to students who need it, doesn't contact parents when she should, and adds in her unsolicited opinion on your child. just bring your own meds, it's better to get in trouble than be given the wrong ones by roni sue. don't give kids Pepsi and Tylenol

This school has it's pros and cons. The pro is the small…read moreclass sizes. Less than 50 students per grade, so it is possible to know all of your classmates. This is also a con because it makes "cliques" more apparent. Pros: Parent-teacher relationships are strong. Attached to the church so there is no walking outside during inclement weather. Nuns still teach and run the school, this is less common in some other Catholic schools. Convenient for local children. Has after school program. CORA is available to tutor children who are having trouble, this happens during school hours. Cons: Costly, there are even charges if your child stays for lunch (which last I remember is held in the classrooms since there is no proper cafeteria.) Lack of after school activities, and those that do exist are expensive. Extracurricular classes are poor, in particular gym, which is held in the chilly basement of the church. Small class sizes mean advanced students are held back. To keep them busy they are asked to help less advanced students. Most of the student body lives in the area and graduates to Archbishop Ryan. Religion is held in high regard, and is very prevalent in the classroom. By attending this school, CCD is not mandatory as you study for and receive the sacraments through their church.

Hey I went to CTK in the mid 1960's to early 70's. The average size class was about 4o students per…read moreroom. There was no gym. For lunch you either ate in the classroom or walked home for lunch. Maybe you went over to Academy Plaza But you know what ! I received a good catholic school education, and I would not change that for anything.

How utterly sad to see this school is still open for business. I attended this school personally,…read moreand am witness to the terrible beatings and horrible abuse of innocent, helpless children. Some were autistic, some had other disabilities. But one thing we all had in common was the horrific treatment from the "teachers" and administration that turned a blind eye. When I was a child, I did not realize that laws were being broken. Now I know better. Delta School should be shuttered and leveled. It is a place of constant nightmares for those of us that remember the beatings, and have not blocked them out of our collective memory. NOTE: The last time I posted these same TRUE comments about the school, they were deleted. If YP deletes them again, I wiil make sure they show up on Twitter, FB, here again, and anywhere else they will be read by unsuspecting parents. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN TO THIS SCHOOL IF YOU LOVE THEM!!!

I was in delta since I was 13 years old and graduated when I was 21 years old. Although there were…read moresome problem kids no place is perfect. The teachers there taught me a lot that I needed to know and how to function out in the world and how to hold onto a real job. I admit that I haven't visited lately but I can say that this school is good for those with special needs.

Pros: So far I like this school that my daughter attend, I…read morehave no major issues with any of the staff and believe that the staff here actually care about the students. I have been sending her here for 2 years now and she will more than likely continue coming here up until 5th grade. The staff is all really nice and seem to be teaching my daughter a lot. I can see a huge progression in both reading and math and my daughter actually enjoys going to school. There are so many good things going on with this school, like they just installed security cameras and last year the roof was redone. Although this is a public school, they are making the necessary changes so that our children remain safe in their learning environment. They have a lot of activities and things for parents to involve themselves with the school and their children's lives, from fundraisers for the home and school and parent round table meetings to improve the school. The school is very diverse so your child has the chance to be around a melting pot of cultures and races. Cons: I had an issue last year with my daughter being bullied and the school sorta intervened but I feel like they need to take bullying more seriously and focus on stopping the bullying when it occurs. Another downfall to this school is the main office, whenever I go to the main office to pick my daughter up they take forever and if i have a set appointment time for her, they take so long actually getting her to come down and i have to speed like a maniac to get there in time. I usually come about 30 minutes earlier just because I know it will take a while to sign her out! I also have some issues with the office women, a few times their attitude was just unwelcoming and terrible. If they are working with parents of the children who attend there, they should be a little nicer.

IT BEATS PUBLIC SCHOOL…read more My son goes there for pre-K. We love the school and their staff. Once my daughter is old enough to attend, we will be sending her too. I only have one concern, and it's a major one, they need to tighten up security on the grounds. I would like to see them a hire a police officer or an armed security guard. I know people will probably say why, but the safety of my(and your) children is the most important thing that I think of when I'm not there with them. My wife and I pay a decent amount of money to send our son here. I wouldn't mind paying a little more if they could meet those concerns. Please don't take this review as a bad one. This was only negative that I have with the school, but I think it's worth mentioning.

Please consider looking at Ryan as a choice for your child's education. The teachers,…read moreadministrators, and staff are very friendly and personable and will help you with anything you need. Ryan offers over 30 clubs and activities as well as many sports (boys and girls) that will help your child find his/her individual interests.

If you want your child to succeed and go beyond others, Ryan is the place to send him/her.
