In addition to the academics, the students are encouraged to get involved in sports and extra curricular activities. The teachers are willing to work with students and parents to ensure that the student succeeds to the best of his/her ability. Students are encouraged to develop interpersonal and leadership skills through the Ambassador Club and various leadership retreats. Having looked and been accepted at other Catholic high schools, Lowell Catholic was definitely the best fit and the best choice.

The worst part about this place is that if your child does not behave very well at school, they complain about it and expect the parent to fix all behavior problems immediately. I had expected that they would teach him how they expect him to act and behave. But instead of teaching and helping him through the adjustment period, they started complaining from the first day of school. They have absolutely no patience. Every time I used to get mostly complaints. We had our son evaluated and they saw nothing that wasn't normal for his age. He is just a very active 3 year old boy. Please do not send your kids to this preschool for their own sake!

I'm going to detail my time here. Everything I say is 100% the truth; I implore you to believe me…read more Even if it sounds fake. Please. Lighthouse is the worst school I've ever been at, having gone there from 2007-2011, in my high school years. It gave me nightmares for seven years - leaving because it was overtaken only by a new, more threatening nightmare - and learned helplessness for thirteen. Before going here, I was a fine enough student. Very clearly disabled and needing accommodations, but otherwise there was nothing wrong. This school is vile. You're treated like a child, you're not taught anything, you're handled physically for things like refusing to do classwork, or even just saying inoffensive things the staff think is offensive, and it makes you feel worthless. Bullying is allowed, despite the zero tolerance policy. Let me explain, one at a time, in order. Being treated like a child: I don't mean in the sense that yeah, you're a high schooler or whatever, of course you're still a kid. No, I mean you get treated like you're five. If you say something offensive - or just that the teachers think is offensive, a friend of mine got in trouble for talking about noodles. Y'know, pasta, we were talking about mac and cheese - you get a strike, referred to as a cue. Three strikes and you get sent to time out, which will be elaborated on later. This can include things like: lying, saying minor swears (crap, hell, etc.), displaying any knowledge of sex, refusing to accept an obviously fake apology, or just anything the aides think falls into one of those categories. Like noodles, a euphemism from when we were five. We were 18 during this conversation, even, meaning we were legally adults. Oh, and this is going to sound a bit out of place, but I remembered from another review: you're assigned a "therapist" by the school, and absolutely nothing you say is confidential. Don't like a staff member? Something wrong with your home life? Well, now they know. As for not being taught anything, this is technically only half right. If you only went to Lighthouse, as it's an escalator school (elementary through high), I'm sure you'd learn things. As someone who went to a public school, though? I was doing middle school work, again. I don't know if it was the fault of the No Child Left Behind act leaving me behind or just how things are done there, but it was the *exact* same work. Same books and everything. Do you know what it feels like to have your friends talk about homework, and you just have to sit out because you don't know anything they're doing? I have, and it's incredibly alienating and makes you feel dumb. When I confronted them on it in 12th grade because I finally had enough, they gave me excuses until I got an actual adult into it, and they told me that they would teach me if I completed all of the schoolwork they gave out that year. I figured, alright, I could do that. I did it before; how hard could it be? So I did what I was given, asked for next week's, and...was told to wait for next week. So I stopped doing it entirely. I have since taught myself some things, but...well, it's *still* alienating not knowing comparatively simple things. So, what happens when you refuse to do classwork? They call people to take you to time out - physically, if you refuse to go, because you didn't do anything wrong. Rather than de-escalate situations, they're designed to escalate them. If you don't submit, they try to get a rise out of you so they can get handsy. They don't do it in ways that leave bruises, since otherwise parents would ask what's going on, but they don't have any problems violating your boundaries and treating you like scum of the earth. I still feel a visceral disgust at the number 718, because it's their code for calling them. Students constantly act out, and I cannot blame them one bit. Wouldn't you, if you felt like a prisoner? But, where do they bring you? A place that's deliberately 20 degrees colder than the rest of the school - you're forced to take a sweatshirt off if you know you're going and keep it on, by the way - and have to sit at a desk and write about what you did wrong and apologize for it. If it was to a student, not to them. I was very acquainted with this place by the end of the year, because I refused to play their game anymore. And lastly, as the "things the staff think are offensive" thing was covered, making you feel like you were worthless. I mean...do I even need to say it? I wasn't allowed to be a high schooler, I wasn't even *taught* like a high schooler, and was treated like I was worse than garbage for refusing to submit. This led to an incredibly tumultuous stint at working multiple jobs, all of which ended in failure. I no longer trust therapists because I'm always terrified of them leaking information to anyone I have issues with. Only send your child here if you want them to fail. Please, I am begging you, send them elsewhere. They deserve better than this.

I met with Karen, the director, after a girlfriend of mine recommended them. We walked throughout the entire school, not just the infant room- which is what we needed. The do in house field trips! They go all the way up to kindergarten, and while touring, I could tell all the staff and kids were happy. This is important to me, as I want the best for my child. They have a chef! They introduce nutritional meals and plant a seed of understanding food groups at a young age, to instill healthy food choices as they grow. I LOVE THIS! I was talking to a neighbor mom who couldn't understand why they would have a chef, and to ME, it's important. Because cooking, prepping, rationing out snacks and meals, is tough sometimes. I run a business and manage an office, and my husband works starting his days at 630 at a glass contracting facility, so we are BUSY! Knowing my daughter can get the proper attention and great food, makes me feel VERY confident that I'm providing her with the best school. They have monitors and video cameras, which helps me feel the kids are safe. There's monitors in the front lobby. Everything was clean, everything was labeled, and it felt like they're managed very well. From sign language, to educational groups, to the hands on staff- I just feel this is the best center in town. I literally cried in the parking lot! My only complaint is the price. It's nearly double what other daycares nearby offer! Their full-time rate is 500$. I understand they offer a LOT and it's the best of the best, but 3-400 range would be more appropriate in my opinion. Worth the tour! the kids will thrive! This is our dream daycare!

I certainly was extra stressed with the process of getting twins acclimated to the daycare environment at 15 months (they were at home with a nanny before this), but everyone from the the teachers and staff and director helped make the process work. They girls have their primary teacher, but are constantly interacting with different groups of kids and teachers and staff. This has been wonderful in getting them accustomed to new people outside of the school environment. They used to be very shy about meeting new people but its a comfortable process being in new places now. The school also helps me as a first time mom with many questions I'll have about different things the kids experience. An added bonus that extends beyond the school environemnt!

Honestly what is more important to be is he is so happy to go to school and learn with his friends. For those of you considering the school reach out and talk to the staff and other parents.
