They each found their own unique experiences (music, film, hockey, cross country, etc) to satisfy their curiosities and provide a network of friends. My youngest son is closer to his Fenwick friends today than he is to his fraternity brothers and college roommates. My daughter transferred in from a picnic high school between sophomore and junior years and found the smaller, more accepting community she needed during those formative years. The faculty, families and priests are amazing. We miss our Fenwick days.

Middle school is a miserable time of life. In my day, we called it "junior high" and it lasted two…read moreyears; today they have extended it to three, starting in 6th grade. If you have to endure those confusing, hormone-addled years somewhere, Julian Middle School is a good place to do it. As a parent, I would volunteer there for lunchtime projects so I could peek into the cafeteria and watch kids in the halls. No food fights, no overt disrespect, no running or rough-housing, at least that I could see. The teachers and administration take bullying seriously, and clamp down hard when the kids are brave enough to report it. Academics are fine, though neither kid had a stellar experience in science.

He cannot sleep at night because he knows he has to go to school in the morning. Lunch is not long enough. You get 20 minutes to eat and 20 minutes to go outside in the cold and you have no option to stay inside for any reason like forgetting your jacket or you havent finished your lunch and several times my son has been told to clean up other students messes because they were at the same table as him and left it there (not next to him of course) and when he refused he got multiple lunch detentions. my son gets his name made fun of it really is a horrible school he has no friends because no kids will even be nice to him. The staff is not helpful at all. He gets bullied every so often for being different and not having a facebook or snapchat or whatever this stupid generation is into. I could go on and on but im gonna end this. DONT SEND YOUR CHILD/CHILDREN TO THIS SCHOOL IT IS REALLY HORRIBLE!

I am a parent to two Children's School graduates and I am thrilled to share that both children and…read moreour whole family had an excellent experience at TCS. We had children enrolled for 8 years. Both kids were wholly engaged in the curriculum and supported in all aspects of their development while building beautiful, meaningful relationships with the other students, parents, teachers and the two amazing directors. They especially enjoyed being able to delve deeper into subject matter with TCS's project-based learning style. They loved being outdoors, having loads of field trips, learning art, music and theatre in addition to reading, math, history, civics and science. They learned to be critical thinkers, problem-solvers, good citizens and helpful friends. They were both welcomed and honored for their uniqueness and learned to further celebrate the diversity of others. Progressive Education at The Children's School was the right fit for my kids. Both of my children thrived at TCS and are now doing very well at our local public high school. It was a financial investment for our family but one we are so glad we made. I'd enroll them again in a heartbeat.

Totally shocked that Trinity has only 1 review…read more It is one of not many all girl schools still educating and holding their own. Trinity has turned a corner and was one of the first high schools to offer an International Baccalaureate Program, along with other programs. I know I was well prepared for college upon graduation. The 100th graduating class is the class of 2018, that's a lot of education. Sister Michelle is dynamic, gets the word out, and is totally AWESOME. She reported that they now draw from 37 suburbs and the city. Continued success.

They are clueless when it comes to dealing with girls who have anxiety issues…read more My daughter went here but suffered from severe anxiety and school refusal as a result of it. She participated in a hospital PHP that collaborated with the staff of Trinity High School to get my daughter back on track. Trinity did not follow the directives of the PHP but instead expelled my daughter before she could complete the program. My daughter now has PTSD from that whole experience. Also, since Trinity is on a block schedule and the school that she went to after Trinity is not, she had to make up 4 classes. Block schedules are good unless you have to transfer to a school that does not have them. Do not send your daughter here if she needs extra emotional support, they cannot provide that. In my opinion, they only want "cookie cutter" kids without emotional issues so the school can maintain their stellar academic rating.

It's the best decision we've made for our children's education and personal growth. They went on to have a strong educational foundation that served them well during high school and then college. I currently have two younger children enrolled at Ascension since PK3, and their educational experience has been top notch. The school's motto of Love, Kindness, Respect and Inclusion is carried out daily and the school has helped shape all four of my children into the wonderful humans they are. There's not enough space to talk about how wonderful the staff, administration and families are, who create the special community of the school, so I suggest if you are looking for school for your child , come in for a tour and find out for yourself. Highly recommend. 10/10.

The families who send their children to this school seem highly committed to helping their children reach their highest potential, and see their children as whole beings with social and emotional needs, as well as academic ones. As a teacher here, I have greatly enjoyed my relationships with parents, as they have been so collaborative and positive. We have newly begun a terrific adolescent program, and I encourage anyone interested in finding an alternate middle school, or a high-quality educational program for any age child to inquire. I have been so happy to work at this fantastic and excellent school, which is truly a haven for Montessori teachers who love to nurture and challenge children!

The new principal who started this year also is fantastic. If you're considering Catholic schools in the area, SFX is a top choice. I'd encourage anyone who's interested in learning more about SFX to talk to current parents (rather than relying on some of the old reviews here) and reach out to the school for information and a tour.

With such amazing schools in the area it is very competitive academically with a bonus of Catholic teachings.
