My daughter is now in her 4th year at St. Thomas - and over those years I have come to know several…read moreof the faculty and parents, including the headmaster, Michael Cusack. They truly have my respect, not only as teachers.. but as thinkers, innovators, and leaders in education. The curriculum is challenging and encourages an understanding of the liberal arts and sciences, balanced by the values of forgiveness, love, and understanding deeply rooted in Christian belief systems. Their Scottish Arts program is unbelievable to see and I am constantly amazed at the artistic abilities of the students who have been encouraged over the years by the school. My daughter, who deals with sensory issues that affect her learning, has always been treated with the utmost respect and has been encouraged to embrace new ideas while being challenged by proven methods of teaching that instill an understanding of the world around her while teaching her to effectively communicate those ideas. I am not an alumni and I was only aware of the school through long time friends. But, having faced the challenges of the current public school system with our oldest child, my wife and I came to believe that a private school was our only acceptable option for our youngest child (and any future children). We explored several private schools in Houston and decided on St. Thomas' based on a tour of the school and talking with faculty and others who knew of or had experienced the school. Also, I believe that the tuition is quite reasonable compared with other private schools in Houston that we considered. We intend to keep our 8 year old at St. Thomas' through 12th grade and we plan to send our 3 year old there as well when she reaches school age. I would also encourage any parents considering a private school education to meet with Mr. Cusack and the faculty and see it for yourself. I believe that you will like what you see.

The teachers are awesome and the administration is very helpful. They also have a Scottish Arts program which is excellent. The band is full of bagpipers and drums. There is also a Scottish dance program which has produced many U.S. champions. If you are around the Meyerland plaza area around 4pm you will hear the bagpipers practicing.

The student body is very multicultural and the atmosphere is inclusive and accepting.

In…read moreprevious yearly cycles, the academy has been far more pleasant, yet as of recent times, I have found strong displeasure with the state of the institution with the price only going up yet seeing virtually no difference in anything save meaningless policies that have not a single net benefit of note. I find the principal of the upper school to be quite an insufferable individual, often refusing to deal with situations considered of an important scale especially on topics such as blatant bullying and exceptionally problematic behavioral issues, however many of the teachers are indeed wonderful people. On a positive note however, the school does have a wonderful multicultural aspect that allows for a child to gain a more whole and worldly perspective, though you must ask yourself before sending your child here: is being in a multicultural school worth their mental health? the answer should be no, so this school is in fact a great school, BUT only up until the high school, where I would consider sending my child elsewhere.

We have loved our experience at Duchesne. Our daughter started in 3rd and is entering 7th. The…read moreeducation has felt very individualized to her and she says it is like a home to her. We have always felt the teachers and administration are willing to work with us to create a strong and well rounded educational experience. It is also so fun to see all the different age girls interacting since there are girls from pre-k 3 through 12th grade on the campus. The girls often get a chance to feel like a leader. Also we are not catholic and have never felt out of place as a family here. Highly recommend!

attended Duchesne Academy of the Sacred Heart from Pre-K through 5th grade, and I can honestly say…read moreit was one of the most damaging and traumatic experiences of my life. The school constantly preached, "We are a family," but that couldn't have been farther from the truth. It felt more like being trapped in a prison where no one cared about you--especially if you didn't fit their idea of the "perfect" student. I have a learning disability, and instead of offering support, the school made me feel like I was a burden. The teachers completely ignored my struggles and acted as if my needs were too much for them to handle. They couldn't be bothered to help me succeed and made it clear that if you weren't one of their "ideal" students, you didn't matter. The bullying was relentless, and it was allowed to thrive. I was made fun of constantly, and the teachers never intervened. They didn't care. I went to them for help, and their response was always the same: dismissive and uninterested. It was like I didn't exist unless I was falling in line with their expectations. They let the bullying continue, creating an environment that was toxic, unsafe, and emotionally damaging. Instead of being a family, this school felt like a place where kids were pitted against each other, and the weak were left to fend for themselves. I was held back because of this school. Instead of providing me with the help I needed to succeed, they let me fall behind and made me feel like I wasn't good enough. The lack of support and care destroyed my confidence and left me feeling worthless. They didn't help me overcome my challenges; they just made them worse. I had to repeat a grade because of their failure to provide any meaningful support or accommodations for my learning disability. I should have been given the resources to succeed, but they chose to push me aside and let me fail. And the tuition--don't even get me started. We paid an absurd amount of money for this so-called education, but all we got in return was a toxic, neglectful environment. The money went into the pockets of the administration, while the students received no extra help, no special accommodations, and no real education. It felt like we were just another dollar sign to them, nothing more. They were more interested in maintaining their "prestige" than actually helping the students who needed it the most. In the end, I left Duchesne feeling completely broken and defeated. The school didn't just fail me academically--it ruined my sense of self-worth. I was left emotionally scarred, and I had to fight to rebuild my confidence. It wasn't a place that nurtured growth, learning, or self-esteem. It was a place where kids were ignored, bullied, and made to feel like they weren't good enough. I wouldn't wish this school on my worst enemy. If your child has a learning disability, or if they don't fit into the mold of the "perfect" student, don't send them here. Duchesne Academy of the Sacred Heart will not help them thrive. It will break them. This school doesn't care about the students--it only cares about money and its own image. It's a toxic, harmful place that promises a family but delivers nothing but pain, neglect, and failure.

I can only do a review of the playing field where my granddaughter played lacrosse last weekend…read more The school was a bit of a drive from our home in Kingwood, I had forgotten that this section of town seems to have all the businesses selling used car parts so this nice private school seems a bit out place among salvage yards. That being said, the field my granddaughter's team played on was very nice, really good AstroTurf and while the bleacher seats are a bit hard, I was glad I brought my stadium chair. At the halftime I used the men's restroom, it was quite clean and modern. In the end my granddaughter and her Atascocita team mates beat Saint Pius by a good margin, both teams were very sportsmanlike and shook hands afterwards. I wish our politicians could be as nice to each other! Here are a few pictures I took of the game.

I understand that so I told her that someone else had it taken care of cause I'm texting my mom. She then continued to yell at us and verbally harass us. The coach did nothing about it. I'm very disappointed in the way they acted especially because this is a private school and they were not representing it very well. Then whole team then decided to start being rude and acting up about it P.S. I could give zero stars I would
