If I wanted any information from the director or the teachers I needed to ask for it, and I often got different responses depending on who I asked. It felt like the teachers relied on the "Tadpoles" app as a crutch so that they did not have to talk to us. Moreover, I was upset at the number of injuries and incidents my son experienced here compared to his placement at another center. His very first day after attending, he came home with horrible diaper rash with open sores. The teachers tried to make excuses for this by saying it may have been because they were serving him fruit. This is ridiculous to me because we had been serving him fruit at home for almost a year at that point. He was constantly sick and had so many bruises, scrapes and bite marks from "incidents" that I was afraid his pediatrician would think he was being abused. It culminated in an incident where he had a febrile seizure in the classroom and the teachers claimed that they had no idea what caused the seizure or if it could have been prevented. They sent him to the ER where his temperature was found to be 102.7. They claimed someone had been holding him when it happened, so how could they not have known that he had a fever? We had also previously told them that he has a history of febrile seizures. As childcare professionals they should have known the signs of a fever and been able to contact us or administer Tylenol to him before the seizure happened. All in all I did not feel safe sending my son here, and I think the teachers and director did not do a good job either communicating or making sure my child was appropriately cared for. I am writing this not to hurt their business but to make sure other parents are able to make an informed choice when it comes to who they trust with their child's care.

    This school year (2013), we have two children enrolled in St John the Evangelist. One is in first…read moregrade and the other is in kindergarten. There were a few major factors that played a role in our decision to choose St John the Evangelist: 1) Class size: Last year, our son's kindergarten class was the first year they split into two classes instead of a single class and it helped in making class sizes that were already comparatively small, even smaller. The amount of attention each individual student receives is incredible! 2) The Principal was a delight in our interview process and has been an administrator and teacher in Catholic Schools for quite some time. She personally gave us a tour of the school, invited us to sit in classrooms to examine teaching styles (we visited multiple grades, not just the kindergarten). She is determined to get the best out of her staff and our children each day. She is extremely approachable and available to us, as parents, with any questions we have. 3) Our family's Catholic faith was a big reason in choosing to educate our children through SJE. It is truly inspiring to see our children grow in mind, body, and spirit simultaneously. We are truly grateful that our Catholic Tradition is integrated in their educational upbringing. One of the many success stories that we have with our son from last school year is that he was already reading beginner books by himself after just a couple of months of Kindergarten. I couldn't believe my ears when he started reading to me; it concreted our decision even further. Now that we are armed with our own experiences of St John the Evangelist, we wouldn't hesitate doing this all over again. We highly recommend anyone considering a private education in the area to put SJE on their short list of institutions for consideration. It is a blessing to know our children are getting the best of what the teachers and administrators have to offer every day.

Stumbled across St Johns. Ironically I used to attend St Johns back in the 90s. Sounds like nothing has changed. At the time I was the ONLY black student in the entire school. k-8. I felt like more of an attraction than anything. Definitely felt like the teachers were all harder on me than my peers. Mind you, I have never been a troubled kid, nor a bad student. I was considering allowing my children to go there but thanks to Lady L, I think I will pay more for another school rather than subject them to the type of scrutiny and racism I endured while there.
