Apparently, everything was moved to paint the walls over Christmas break, but nothing was put back and the school wasn't ready to accept children when they opened. When we arrived, I was asked many times by different people if my son went in the jumper instead of trying to interact with him. I got many snide comments about my son "only wanting to be held." He's only 5 months old. Of course he doesn't want to be left alone in a jumper any himself all day. I can do that at home for free. Before I left, I gave them clear instructions on his schedule. While I know it's impossible to follow his at home schedule to a tee, the schedule was completely ignored. When they eventually tried to feed him hours after his usual time, he was so hungry and tired (because the nap schedule was also ignored) that he was crying too hard to take the bottle. When we came to get him after a half day the teacher told us she had given him solids even though we specifically asked that he only be given breast milk. This school is absolutely terrible.

My god daughter attends, and I recently had the pleasure of seeing her presented with an award for "straight A" 4th-grade school work. The parents all seem to know each other, and the teachers and administration are clearly enthusiastic about being here. Also, even thought this is a Catholic school, religion isn't forced and the school welcomes students from all walks. If you are thinking about sending your child here, I recommend meeting the principal and staff. You are sure to be impressed!

When I had first heard about it I was intrigued by the highly advertised posters coming from this school regarding their education standards, teachers, proficiency, state testing, MAS being "nationally" ranked and #1 in Charter School. I was quite surprised how much they try to sell their school and advertise for such accomplishments. After the first month of my daughter attending there in 5th grade, I received a call stating she had "called 911 on their phone". After receiving this call about what she did I was a bit concerned because my child was NEVER involved in any incidents at her previous school. It turned out to be a "friend" of hers that did it and my child took the blame. I didn't recieve another phone call, until another school year after. This time it was about her "eating Cheetos in class". After that it seemed that between her dad and I, we were receiving calls every other day regarding her and what she was doing, "she is not on topic", "she is braiding her hair", "she's putting on lipgloss", "she is talking to her friends", "she is taking too long in the restroom". The frequency of calling over nothing was starting to be disruptive in our daily lives. At first I did appreciate the contacting but after some of the reasons why they were calling? I'm like "ok, I'll have a talk with her". This was all new to me, especially since my child was never in trouble at her previous school, now her teachers were calling about every little thing, she did and didn't do. The receptionist in the front always had an attitude about her dad and I signing her out. "It has to be before 2:30", "she's at lunch, you're gonna have to wait 30 min till she finishes and walks back to class", etc. Ridiculous, definitely not a traditional school where they use an intercom to communicate for the students. The urgency of time was NEVER there at this school. Then when she would arrive we'd have to wait another 5-10 minutes for them to get her phone. My child was late for majority of her appointments due to me sitting there in the lobby waiting for her. I'm sorry but if my child had an appointment after 2:30. You best believe I will be signing her out! My child played volleyball for a year and the fact that they had scheduled times and days was convenient. But sometimes they wouldn't know till the day of what time their game would be at, who they were playing or even if she would get playing time. That's definitely unacceptable and disorganized. Students are consistently sitting in a room all day, not sure if they even have windows (not from what I've seen in her classrooms over the years). Meanwhile the teachers are switching in and out teaching different subjects. Students are not being taught the basic independency skill to walk to another classroom to learn the subject for middle school or high school, to visit a locker in between passing periods to drop off books or material, or having homework and having books and study material provided to them to take home. Their grading system is very complicated to understand, it's not a traditional A,B,C,D,F grading system. I shouldn't say what needs to improve, I think you all know what should be improved. I think this school over my child's time there, did put her a little behind in learning. I would've moved her sooner if we had the chance! I'm only speaking from our experience!
