    Principle should be on unemployment for everything that happend with the bullying and the threats…read moreagainst my kid which he did nothing to stop.. thanks alot for nothing .. im pulling my kid and she's going to have better surroundings along with better teachers who teach and not hinder...

    I really debated whether I should write this review and I decided it's necessary…read more I, and my husband, are both products of parochial and private education. We always believed that when or if we had a child/children, they would be entitled to the same. Daughter came along and we were loathe to put her in a public school environment - we were just plain stupid. Per the recommendation of many at the time, we enrolled our daughter into Saint John Vianney. We also joined the parish community. Things were OK initially. It seemed like every decent teacher she had used this school as a jumping off point to get into a public school system, which it was. The fund raisers and the tuition were excessive. Really excessive. Teachers came and went, as did principals. Breaking point for us was one month out of our daughters 8th grade graduation...she was headed to Nardin. Class size is exceptionally small. Families that run the school, are on the board and have the say as to what is acceptable are few as well, however these familes do set the bar. My daughter was harrassed by one of the board members' children. I don't pay the big bucks to have a bible thumping/reading numnuts give me crap. I complained to the so called "principal" at the time and was told, verbatim, "if I don't see or hear it, it's not happening". Moved daughetr to a public middle school in May of her graduating year. Received calls from "principal" threatening to forward "info" (????) to Nardin to make it difficult for her to adjust. And this is the school whose motto is "Where Faith and Knowledge Meet"?

    I had doubts about public schools since neither I nor my husband have ever attended one. I pay…read morevery high taxes in West Seneca so when my grand daughter was ready for school, my daughter, hubby and I perused options. Private kindergarten starts at 10k. Please let me get a second job to pay for naptime. We finally put my/our taxes to use. Chloe was to attend public school kindergarten. Oh the shame! Clarification - daughter has lived with us since 2011. Two children in tow. Daughter attended parochial. Allendale is our appointed district however it shares a space with West Elementary. Essentially, kinda maybe the same school however I am not that well versed in Public School vernacular. I was not initially pleased. I felt that perhaps Chloe was a bit too smart mouth upon her return home from school. I guess I forgot what annoying little creatures children can be. I pushed to switch to a Charter School. It didn't happen, my review has been posted. Negatively. Bottom line. Chloe reads like a trooper. Understands math better than I - I have the advantage of an abacus!! I went to her Kindergarten graduation yesterday and I was reduced to tears. Simple presentation, hotter than you can imagine, however nicely put together! Best part, I got to visit the actual classroom. There are three for Allendale Kindergarteners and they are all so homey and cool! Not like the icy rows of learning from the ill educated Nuns of my Catholic School days where a switch was quick to get those knuckles! Only, of course, if your teaching Sister was not asleep at the wheel - as often was the case. The room. Wee little tables, arced. Not too many children. Not a super large room. Everyone can get the attention they need, if they need it. Everything was encased inside this little learning paradise. No lockers, cubbies. A cute little transgender bathroom with little fixtures. Books, and many of them. I could not ask for anything more for a learning environment for a child. And did I say HUGE windows with a view to paradise?? Where the deer play! Transoms that open to allow fresh, circulating air?? I think this will work.
