The teachers are caring, attentive, and truly invested in each student's success, which makes a big difference. The school also has a strong sense of structure and decorum, especially with uniforms that help create a respectful and focused learning environment. There is a real sense of community here--families are involved, supported, and welcomed, which makes it feel like more than just a school. We also appreciate the spiritual foundation of the school. Weekly church on Fridays and family mass on Sundays help strengthen faith and bring everyone together in a meaningful way. Nothing makes me happier than being able to participate and watch my child present and read during Mass, take part in class projects, and see her excitement in sharing what she has learned. My daughter truly loves attending this school, and as a parent, I am very happy and grateful for the positive environment, values, and education she is receiving.

I feel compelled to share my experience with Mountain View Elementary due to significant concerns…read moreregarding communication, care, and transparency from the school administration. My son has attended this school since TK and had a generally positive experience until this year, which has unfortunately taken a troubling turn. This year, my son had Miss Bradford as his teacher. Initially, he connected well with her and considered her one of his favorite teachers. However, everything changed in November when I received an alarming call from the vice principal, Miss Regis informed that there was an emergency situation in the classroom involving my son, during which Miss Bradford allegedly threw his backpack and jacket at him while he was resting his head on the table. This incident was shocking and left my son feeling unsafe and confused. In the aftermath, I attempted to meet with Miss Bradford and the principal, Mrs. Kralian, to discuss the situation. However, I was told by Mrs. Kralian that they needed to follow their investigation protocols before setting up an appointment with me. Despite my numerous emails and phone calls seeking clarity, I was met with a wall of silence. The school maintained that they could not communicate further while the investigation was ongoing, leaving me feeling ignored and in the dark. What's particularly troubling is that this was not an isolated incident. Miss Bradford had previously thrown keys in the middle of the classroom out of frustration and left the room empty during another incident just weeks before her actions toward my son. These repeated behaviors were never professionally addressed by the school. Instead of focusing on Miss Bradford's behavior, the principal used my son's child behavior against him. Our children come to school to be educated, grow, and mature, and it's disheartening to see them treated this way. I once had a lot of respect for the principal, but her handling of this situation has deeply disappointed me. I have reached out multiple times, including to Miss Hatfield, to address proper communication. Most recently, I had an IEP meeting that both the principal and vice principal did not attend, despite having passed them earlier that day and greeting them. Their lack of respect and communication is concerning. I hope this message resonates and encourages a more professional approach to communication with parents. It's vital that the school respects its role in creating a safe learning environment and addresses issues transparently rather than using power to ignore and cover up suspicious situations. Than being transparent and accountable and honest and having a positive attitude and meeting to discuss and resolve for a parent to feel comfortable and understanding the situation. Hopeful for next year my son will be treat better by the school and teachers and i won't ever have to address a matter like this again.

The micro-school approach really caters to each individual student. 1. Awesome teachers and small class sizes offer exceptional individual attention. This allows thriving students to work ahead and those who need a little more support to both receive the customized care they deserve. 2. The principal has a vision. He utilizes all of the resources available and applies them to the students in a very targeted and distinctive manner. The school's standardized test scores quantitatively demonstrate this by improving year over year and outpacing those of neighboring schools. 3. I truly believe great families make a great school. We have both. Parents are honest, ethical, and actively participate in the progress of the school. 4. Holy Redeemer - St. James School is grounded in the morals and virtues of faith. Not easy to find in many schools nowadays. I am so grateful and happy to be part of the HRSJS Community.

In line with this mission, we also work diligently to help our students achieve our Student Learning Expectations (SLEs). Our SLEs are the guiding principles that shape our students into well-rounded individuals. The integration of these SLEs into our curriculum is seamless, and it's heartwarming to witness our students embrace them in their daily lives. Working at a school where both our mission and SLEs are central to our educational approach is an extraordinary experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Holy Redeemer - St. James Catholic School to anyone seeking a well-rounded education that shapes students into leaders who will make a positive impact in the world. -Emma Godin (Middle School Science & Math Teacher) -Lesli Ayers (1st Grade Teacher)
