    When we moved to the area we visited 4 nearby Catholic Churches to decide which one to join. We…read morechoose St. Brigid because of how active the parish is. We are definitely happy we did. I am a Eucharistic Minister and my husband is a member of Knights of Columbus. We both volunteer with St. Vincent de Paul. We continue to be amazed at the attendance at every Mass and how many people volunteeer and donate whenever a need is presented. The chuch has organizations for the youth, singles, young adults, parents and seniors. There are bible studies and support groups available. They try to offer events during the day and the evening in order to accomodate the most people. St. Brigid supports an orphanage in Nicaragua for children with special needs. It is definitely the most active parish I have seen. The people are welcoming and friendly.

    We have been members of this church for a while now and we have NEVER felt a sense of community…read morethere. Our kids went to preschool there and whilst they were treated alright, the teachers were never approachable. IN the end it all comes down to money...the catholic school there will want u to apply but when it comes to accepting, just being catholic and the member of the church doesnt help...sadly its the color of ur skin (yes!! very unfortunate) and the amount of money u can give that counts. They claim to be a christan organisation...their ethics are def not such!!!!! I wanted to give my kids some sort of religious education in their early years.. i now feel i could have just put them in a good Goddard, Montessori or Primrose. I wouldnt recommend St Brigid or Holy Redeemer to anyone who is normal middle class or person of color. HORRIBLE!! Obviously, we will no longer be associating with this organisation.

Sadly nearly every staff member has left since I left but nice to see the place still thriving.

It was awesome to catch up with them after not seeing them for years!! Anyways, I loved this place and would 100% recommend this place to anyone.

This is also the very first review I have ever written on an online forum in my more than 40-year life, so please know this situation was a very impactful one to my son and our family as a whole. Our journey with Alpharetta International Academy (AIA) was mixed. My son attended for two and a half years, and the first two years were positive. The staff seemed attentive, and my son thrived in a supportive environment. During the third year, things changed. Because he was not fully potty-trained, AIA didn't promote him to the 3-year-old class, even though developmentally and academically he was capable of tasks well-suited to a preschool environment. Instead, he was placed in a class with toddlers as young as 18 months, which seemed overcrowded, leaving his teacher (what was perceived to be) overwhelmed. Her teaching style changed, as did her overall demeanor and patience level. As a result, our son became bored and unchallenged, which impacted his behavior. We began receiving calls to pick him up due to what we believe stemmed from the teacher's frustration. These calls came on two separate occasions, one for the teacher's inability to redirect him during circle time and once when he picked up a Montessori-sized chair and when he put it down, it came down on the teacher's foot. Mind you, these two times were the only time in now almost three years that we were called for these things or that there was any type of misbehavior communicated to us on behalf of the school. Both times we picked him up, we were assured by the head of school that his teacher would follow up with us about his behavior, but this never happened. We twice asked the teacher to move him into a developmentally appropriate class. Just two weeks prior to his withdrawal I urged her to move him into the developmentally appropriate class temporarily as a "trial". All of these suggestions and requests were refused. It was disappointing for the teacher to be so unresponsive to our requests to address this clear mismatch in placement. This was the same teacher who had worked wonderfully with him for two years and who had previously shown genuine care and understanding, so we were left confused as to her actions, or lack thereof. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience working with children, as well as the daughter of two Doctorate Level public school teachers, I understand that children are at their best when they're engaged in age-appropriate, stimulating settings. It was disheartening to see that the AIA staff now seemed unable to understand the impact a poorly suited classroom environment could have on our son's behavior and learning. To add to our distress and disappointment, the head of school sent a disingenuous response to my email with my intent to withdraw my son from her school due to a lack of a suitable and appropriate classroom environment. She did express regret at our decision, saying she loved our son and was committed to working with him. Her email response was a conflicting message, combining both overly kind and positive statements with underlying hurtful remarks. She informed us that we would still be responsible for paying a sizable early withdrawal fee, totaling thousands of dollars. Although we were aware of this fee in the enrollment agreement, my husband responded to explain that, given the circumstances leading to the change, we felt it was unfair to be held financially responsible for their choices and when we were already having to spent thousands to place him in a different learning environment. He also mentioned we would be leaving an honest review of our experience to better inform other families considering AIA. In response, the head of school reiterated the fee due and informed that we should "please understand that any communication perceived as a threat has been formally documented and will be addressed through the proper channels if necessary". This statement was unnecessary and upsetting to us, as we were simply expressing our intent to share our experience honestly. Ultimately, while we value the initial positive experience our son had at AIA, the handling of this final chapter left us with reservations regarding AIA's ability to make decisions that are best for the children they serve and questions regarding their authenticity in their mission statement. I hope this review helps AIA consider ways to better support students' needs and communicate open and in real time with parents. Lastly, I hope this review enables other parents considering AIA to make the most informed decision that leads to the most positive outcome for their child and family as a whole.

She was in 2/3rd during Covid and really got left behind. Administration was also slow to approve testing for learning disabilities. We choose AA because YES they do offer several programs for children of all learning abilities. Our daughter was able to bring her IEP and we knew all her accommodations would be met in a small setting with a high level of accountability from the faculty. But this school didn't just offer the academics we wanted it also had an amazing arts and music education which is not forfeited as it is many other places. We are also not religious and we were thrilled to find a school that feels more inclusive to people of all faiths wail also using it as an opportunity to teach. After 1 year my daughter is not only thriving she has blown past all expectations. If I had the money I'd send all my kids here tomorrow. When the younger grades contribute by reading or performing in front of a packed auditorium I am truly impressed. Wow. I am also amazed by how many teacher have come to this school FOR their children. They love the school so much they have joined the faculty. That to me speaks volumes. Don't pass this school up over 1 reviews on yelp. Take the tour and make an informed decision for yourself. So far we are beyond thrilled and excited for more to come.
