The building first housed 303 children in 8 classrooms. As work was being finished on the school, the parish continued to outgrow Saint John's Church in Newark. The building attached to the school became Holy Angels Church and served the community as a church until 2004. The building of a new church began in 1999 and was dedicated in July 2004. In February 2006, work began on the old worship space to covert it back to the gymnasium it was originally planned to be. On September 30, 2006, the community was very excited to dedicate the new Holy Angels Gymnasium/Community Center as it celebrated its 50th Anniversary as a school.

Bullying is a huge issue at Ursuline. I'm not sure who the principal is now, but one principal was presented with clear evidence of bullying and chose to ignore the victim and even place blame on them.

This is actually Brandywine High School, part of the Brandywine district…read more Yelp seems to have most of the District's schools labeled as "Brandywine School District" and not by their actual names. This particular location is Brandywine High School. I admit my 5 star rating is probably a little biased. I'm an alumni. The school is not what it once was. The award winning marching band has shrunk in size since it won 1st place at the ACC's in the early 90's. The choir program has been seriously downsized as well. What makes the shrinking music department even more heartbreaking is that some great musicians have come out of this school. George Thorogood, Dennis Brockenborough (from The Mighty Mighty Bosstones), and John Gallagher Jr., Tony Award winner. Other famous alumni include Sean Patrick Thomas and Dexter Boney of the Phoenix Suns. The building itself certainly improved since I was a freshman many years ago. In 1997 there was a complete renovation, including improvements to the auditorium. Hopefully someone else will add a review for Brandywine, either one that's not so biased or one that's a bit more recent. ;-)

Transitioning to a public high school in 1998 was the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I made a large group of friends, took part in a variety of clubs, plays, and other activities, and just really felt like a new person. The best of times for me were in my Freshman English class taught by Ms. Beverly Schilling who I am still friends with to this day. I also had a blast in joining the high school yearbook club! I remember being in various musicals like The Wiz, The Music Man, and How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Honing my skills as both a singer and actor and learning some dance steps on the way as well! I'm proud to say I was also in the same year as actor John Gallagher Jr. who I'm still in touch with today as well as Seth Meyers comedy writer/actor Ben Warheit. The days I spent at Brandywine High School are memories I'll always cherish and be grateful for. I wish I had been able to attend my 10 year reunion, but unfortunately finances were just not good for me at that time. Hopefully for the 15th or 20th! In loving memory of Laura Shepherd, my Junior Year Chemistry Teacher who passed away during the start of my Freshman Year of college in the late Fall of 2002.

Disappointing Ethics and Neglect at Sanford School…read more Sanford School markets itself both as a premier educational and athletic institution, but our firsthand encounter has been far from satisfactory. I am deeply saddened, and disappointed in the lack of integrity, ethics, equity and professionalism displayed by Sanford School. Particularly in President Mark Anderson, and their girls' basketball program under Coach Marcus Thompson. Firstly, Coach Thompson's unethical practices have marred what should be a fair, equitable and enjoyable sporting experience for young female athletes. Coach Thompson has blatant disregard for DIAA rules and DE State laws. His commited offenses of Illegal recruiting practices, mental abuse, verbal degradation, and playing favorites are just some of the major issues never addressed by leadership. These are frequent daily occurrences and systemic issues going back as far as 15 years. They tarnish the integrity of the sport and the overall well-being of the players/students. When confronted about these issues, Coach Thompson, Pat Jones(AD), and Mark Anderson resort to gaslighting tactics. Attempting to discredit concerned parents by labeling them as "crazy". This behavior creates a toxic environment for the players and their families. When I raised my concerns with the administration, including AD Pat Jones and President Mark Anderson, instead of addressing the presented documented evidence of misconduct, I was met with dismissiveness and deflection. Rather than investigating the valid complaints brought forward by multiple families, they chose to vilify the concerned parents, portraying them as irrational and problematic. Furthermore, the lack of response and action from President Mark Anderson despite multiple complaints and emails from over 10+ families is disheartening. Despite the numerous families voicing their grievances and providing substantial proof of wrongdoing, the administration has chosen to turn a blind eye. It is evident that the school prioritizes the success of its basketball program (including the focus on revenue-driven recruitment tactics) over the well-being and fair treatment of its students and their families. Promises of basketball success and a great educational experience are nothing but empty words, as the reality paints a starkly different picture. As a paying "customer" of Sanford School, I expected transparency, fairness, and accountability from the leadership. Instead, what we have encountered is negligence, evasion of responsibility, and a blatant disregard for ethics and the law. It is clear that the school's focus is on revenue generation rather than upholding its values and providing a safe and nurturing environment for its students. In conclusion, I urge prospective parents and students to carefully consider their options before choosing Sanford School. The issues within the girls' basketball program and the leadership's refusal to address them reflect a deeper problem of misplaced priorities and lack of integrity within the institution.
