The atmosphere is friendly and every girl is welcome. CGS promotes equality for all their students. Many different financial backgrounds and cultures are represented.

I first heard of CSG when I was a kid in Toledo and my school played them. They had a good…read morereputation even then, statewide. Since then I married someone who went there, and learned more about it. Sweetie loved going there, got a great education, and still supports them. I have been to several events there and met many alums: wonderful, smart, strong women. The campus is beautiful, the teachers clearly love their jobs and the girls, and CSG looks to be the best place in central Ohio to get a college-prep education. Baby K might go there. I say might because it is outrageously expensive. So, start saving now. But it is worth it. There are so many opportunities at CSG (and there are scholarships.) The world is your oyster, and the support for students and alumni is impressive.

This review is just for the gym. Went to a kids' basketball game here. The school buildings look…read morelike typical '60s elementary school design. Nice enough inside, nothing fancy. The gym is small, but has nice bleachers and a pretty slick scoreboard for an elementary school. Plenty of parking, and located beside a public school with a large park and playing fields between them. We will be checking out Catholic schools for Baby K, so we'll be doing some research on this one.

This is my family's 4th year at the school and we could not be happier. I have 2 students and would…read morestrongly recommend it for the following reasons. First, the strong support and encouragements given by teachers and staff. My children know all teachers, and they know them. Everyday they come home to stories about how this teacher helped them this day and another, the next. When we have had issues arise, I have always been impressed by how communicative the teachers have been and how receptive they are to listen to my concerns, and those of my child. It truly has been a loving environment from day one. Second, tying to the support and encouragement, I have seen amazing academic results each year because of teachers taking the time to address individual needs and work with my children. My children feel confident when it comes to learning and have been well prepared when it's come time to take tests. Third, I love the fact my kids are growing in their Catholic faith through partaking in community service, attending mass weekly, and daily religious instruction. I feel confident that they are becoming good stewards of their faith and better and more compassionate human beings because of it. Lastly, I love the sense of community. Parents and students alike enjoy spending time at the school and school functions. The smaller class sizes facilitates getting to know each family and it also encourages and enables any and everyone to be involved with the school. At St. Agatha you are not a face that gets lost in the crowd.

This has been our daycare since our firstborn was a baby. As a first time mom, it was scary to…read morethink about what a daycare would be and what to expect. I was immediately impressed with the cleanliness, order and processes in place. The teachers are amazing. Because of this school, being a working parents has worked for us. Their staff truly cares for the children, knowing their names even when they aren't in their class. The kids truly have a day of fun, learning and play. The teacher tenure is outstanding, it is so nice to see so many of the same teachers caring for my second with the same attention and noticing the similarities between the siblings. The owners don't cut corners; extra programs like music class, field trips (older age kids), and quality snacks are included. While this is a business, they put the interests of the children and the families first. One night a serious accident caused many parents to stuck in traffic and late. Our children were fed dinner and cared for without a second thought, we were just asked to take our time and drive safely. While this wasn't the closest location to our home, we made the drive because it was worth it. We now sadly leave because of school-aged children.

They have a great team and even better culture, people that love their jobs and most important love the kids. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the fantastic job you did with our son.

We recently enrolled our daughter and couldn't be more excited for her to start her journey.

As a parent who spent quite a bit of money on this school, I was very disappointed in the…read moreacademics. The teachers acted as if they didn't care, didn't really provide direction and leadership to the students or know how to handle the students. The teacher turnover is quite high. We were there only two years and we witnessed 8 teachers leave for better places. With the new superintendent coming in, she fired over 80% of the staff. As a parent, when we send emails or voicemails to talk to the teacher about our child, they would ignore our emails & calls to the point we had to go to the Principal, Mr. Fluhart who really didn't do anything. They started a new learning model which is project based but the teachers do not know how to implement it & the kids are confused. I feel my child took a step back with the bad teaching & leadership academically. I would not recommend spending your money to send your child to this school. I was very disappointed. My child socially enjoyed the school but academically, the teachers and the administration did not care and it is going to show on their test scores with the state. Save your money and send your child elsewhere!!!!

This review is for the playground, not the school…read more We were looking for Krumm Park and GPS took us here. And there was a playground, and sometimes parks are right next to schools, so, hey, maybe this was the right place. It's not- Krumm is just around the corner, beyond the treeline. But the playground here was impressive, and open. Open to the public during non-school hours. There are two distinct areas, for older and younger kids. Slides, hopscotch, climbing areas, etc. Baby K loved it. Dada liked the tables in the shade. The play stuff is out in the sun, so some was very hot on an August day.

Review for the playground only!…read more Came on a beautiful spring day, after school. Lots of kids on the playground- but it's so big it wasn't crowded. There are two playsets, one for smaller kids and one bigger. Plus, other areas: climbing stuff, music, swings, exercise equipment, etc. Loads to do. Only a few benches for tired adults, but that's the norm at schools. Beautifully kept grounds and equipment. Parking is not very close. Baby K loved it and we will be back.

I learned a lot, not just about reading, writing, and arithmatic, but about social skills, music, and art, too. I'm not sure what the school is like anymore. The building I knew and grew up in was demolished in 2006 and replaced with what appears to be a smaller, more "modern" facility. I just remember being a student and loving every second of it. I had teachers who encouraged learning and cared about their students. I had two wonderful principals who took their jobs seriously and, while completely different in personality, they took care of the students in their charge. It was a safe environment for everyone.
