You'll probably learn more from playing Xbox all day or hustling (math skills) then attending this crappy do nothing school . When I went to this "school" (if you can call it that) students would sell dope, snow and gamble, fight and steel in the locker room when the fat lazy gym teacher talked on this phone outside while eating a donut and drinking coffee .Principal Morano and the rest of the district are techphobes (Mike the lazy IT guy as hes known wines about how he hates PCs and loves Apple) and Morano it was his way each student would have to bring in logs in the winter time (to heat the joint), a small chalkboard and a feather to write with (no fancy pall point pens students may get distracted). Some students are so behind at RHS, in the sped class they review the alphabet (no joke) watch kids TV shows, write letters to Santa and play with childrens toys. If you live in the town run fast,send your kid to a private school or home school. If I could give this school 0 stars I would. I also heard that they want to get rid of the pool that the students can't and dont use and turn it into a cafeteria so students will NOT be able to leave for lunch any more. If there was a way to return my diploma to get 4 years of my life back I would.

My biggest regret so far in raising my kids was keeping them in this school when the current…read moreprincipal took over. The other review is correct. They were not allowed to talk during lunch and they were in fact encouraged to rat out their friends if they did talk. There is no chance for the students to socialize at all. The principal, Ms Rios, is a nightmare. I fought with her constantly. She talks down to the students and the parents. She is the biggest bully. She has no respect at all. My family attended this school for three generations and i enjoyed my there back in the 80s and 90s. Now, i would not recommend this place to anyone. My kids are in public school now and they are learning more about respect and consideration for others than they did in this so called catholic school. I receive letters all the time as a graduate asking for donations, however, they will never get another penny from my family after how my children were treated there...especially if that poor excuse for a principal is still there! Also, both of my kids, who were honor roll students in st agatha were behind upon entering public school especially in math. Its sad to see what this school has turned into.

Dear J.M.: Sorry to hear that you were so unhappy at SAS. I…read morehave never had an issue speaking to the faculty or principal. They listen to your concerns and Ms. Rios' door is always open. You can feel bad if the principal or secretary call you to speak with you about tuition but when you enroll your child the fees are explained to you. If you and your family attended Saint Agatha School then you know that for the first 10 minutes of lunch it is silent so everyone can eat. You would also know that you are charged tuition and pay for special events/activities you let your child participate in. The office staff is great at helping families obtain financial assistance if it is needed. Saint Agatha School is a Gold Star No Place for Hate School for the past three years. The faculty and students complete activities that bring them together and show tolerance for others. Does the Public School have this distinction? If your child was an honor roll students I do not understand how they would be behind in their academics unless they are not putting forth enough effort. Remember what you put into something is what you get out of it. You can always let the Catholic Alumni Partnership (CAP) know you do not want to receive any letters. The school does not send out those letters.

It's surprising how rarely people mention this about Regis, but some of the students--especially on…read morethe basketball team--show a real lack of respect and sportsmanship. The experience was honestly pretty disappointing. I've since heard similar stories from other teams ("yeah they're the biggest trash talkers we've seen") in the league, so it clearly isn't just a one-time thing. It's really unfortunate, because a few of us parents were actually thinking about applying and touring the school. Character should matter as much as talent, but that lesson seems to have been missed here.

The best education in the city, free for all students accepted…read more Regis is one of the most selective and academically rigorous high schools in New York City, and probably the most prestigious all-boys Catholic high school in the entire country. because all Regis students attend free of tuition, acceptance is highly selective and based on an entrance exam, letters of recommendation, and more. For those lucky enough to attend, the school offers an excellent Jesuit led education that prepares students for college and beyond, while also instilling Catholic social teaching and the importance of living as "Men for others".

I have had two children attend this school. The kindergarten teacher is one of the best teachers I…read morehave ever come across. She has a robust curriculum of math, reading, writing and social studies and my 5 year old can do addition and subtraction and reads confidently at a first grade level. This teacher also teaches the children kindness and generosity and other wonderful values. The children are so happy in the classroom and love being both with the teacher and their classmates, every day my daughter tells me how awesome school is and she cannot wait to go the next day. My only sadness is that the school doesn't offer a first grade offering. In addition, I have always found the school wonderfully flexible and they do everything they can to make life easier for working parents. I cannot recommend this school highly enough.

I had very high hopes for this school. However, over the last year the administration has…read moreapparently come into a power play against the parents. Parents who pay tuition. Previously, you could drop your child off in the classroom between 8:15 and 8:30. Now they don't open the door until exactly 8:30, and parents are no longer able to take their children to the classroom. Even in the freezing cold we all huddle around the door cramming to get our children in, and we are no longer in contact with the teachers on a daily basis. It does not matter rain, snow, wind, or freezing temperatures, they will not open the door. It used to be you could check in with the teacher in the morning and they would say Sarah is doing great, or she needs to work on listening. Now there is a total disconnect. You send lunch to school with your child and there is one teacher who tells the child what they can and can't eat from their own lunch box. Then the kid is hungry the rest of the day. Why is this person allowed to do this. If a parent give the child the food then the parent says its ok. In the past years, they had a Christmas concert, 1 or 2 songs per class. This past year because of the way the parents behaved at the last concert, they cancelled it. However they decided to have a breakfast with the local senior citizens, who drive, would come to the school have breakfast with the children and then have the concert. Now lets look at this logically: - The parents are not allowed in to the school for any reason - Strangers are going to be permitted to have breakfast with our children who no one knows - If the church is too small to have the concert, you have a gym/cafeteria which has a stage and enough seating so everyone can see, since the stage is up higher than the floor. - I do not think anyone was thinking when these decisions were made The long and the short of this was a lot of parents did not send their children to school that day. The secretary in the office is so smug and unpleasant. No one wants to deal with her. They even sent her to nice classes, I can tell you first hand this did not work. She has even gone as far to not let a child back into school who needed to use the bathroom. REALLY, that is disgraceful. One parent had an appointment and needed to drop their child off 5 minutes early, and she be-raided the parent saying how they did not pay for before care. Why this woman is allowed to behave this way and still have a job is beyond every parent I have spoken to at this school. Send your child somewhere else. I am counting the months until my child no longer has to go to New Beginnings at Grace Lutheran.
