    St. Hilda's is an outstanding school, with incredible teachers, a warm atmosphere, and a deeply…read morethoughtful approach to learning, community, education, and the whole child. Both of our children have loved coming to school at St. Hilda's each day. Beginners offers a beautiful introduction to school, with a warmth and groundedness in early childhood development--each day, there are new activities to try and things to learn, whether building towers and train tracks, growing plants in the greenhouse, cooking season treats, making water creatures and marble paintings, learning yoga poses, singing songs, and so much more. The introduction to school in Beginners is a wonderful one--the teachers are warm and kind, and foster a love of learning. With each grade, the school expands, and Nursery, JK, SK, and 1st grade, are met with science, art, language classes, the greenhouse, PE, and the playdeck. The curriculum is really integrated - students practice letters and numbers across social studies and foreign language classes as well as in their homeroom work time; when they study world cultures in their classrooms they simultaneously learn games played around the world in PE; their science classes connect with concepts in math worktime; and their art projects often coincide with world cultures and school celebrations. Our boys have loved learning each year about the solar system and outer space, the brain and the body, and the foundations of science, and the nearly 30 countries where French is spoken. It's impressive and thoughtful, and indicative of how St. Hilda's approaches so much of the school--with careful consideration, expertise, and a wonderful implementation. The faculty at St. Hilda's are truly remarkable. Teachers come to school with enthusiasm and joy, and it shows in their creativity in the classroom. Our children have learned so much from each teacher, from art to science to PE, because of the excitement and attentiveness of their teachers. It is an extraordinarily warm environment with an incredibly rigorous intellectual process undergirding how the school approaches each age of development and academic unit. The school is, from top-to-bottom, incredibly thoughtful about the education and experience of the children and their families. One more thing that we wouldn't have recognized until we were in it - St. Hilda's is a school for children, and also a school that values families. Events typically start in the evenings so parents with a range of responsibilities can, by and large, attend. One of the first things the Head of School often says is a thank you to the parents for taking time out of their days and family life to be there. It's small, but we've noticed how deep it runs. The school values the families as people, and families matter here. Activities and other events are similar, and the communication is aimed at making life easier for busy parents. It's perhaps a small thing, but indicative of the approach of the school, and it's created another part of a wonderful experience. In short, St. Hilda's is a truly special place. It has academic excellence combined with a warm and loving atmosphere. It has world-class teachers with deep expertise who have a true love of learning and the children they teach. And it has a wonderful community of people who value kindness, dedication, and the joy of learning.

We get frequent feedback about his progress, with lots of practical suggestions about how we can support him. I feel like the teachers are really working with us to help him succeed, and that they really "get" him--and us. Now that he is in first grade and the work is a little more academic, he seems to be thriving with the additional structure of a desk and a uniform. Our daughter is now in the nursery (3s) program and so far, we are equally pleased. She is very different from her brother, but she is comfortable, happy, and looks forward to school. Doesn't hurt that the classrooms are beautiful and full of fun things to do! In many ways this school feels like a throwback, in the very best way. There is a wholesomeness and sincerity about the students and families, and it doesn't feel like the program is trying to push them into too much too soon. I feel like the faculty is incredibly thoughtful and smart about what kids need at the various stages in their development. So far, so good, and we are looking forward to many more happy years here!

    St. Ignatius Loyola Parochial School…read more Being raised Catholic and having many Catholic friends with children, I have attended many events at this school. It's like going to church and school at the same time. It's right next door to St. Ignatius Church where I attended daily mass before the pandemic. I've witnessed the results of their academic programs and recommend them wholeheartidly. Just be aware this quality education has a steep price. As far as the atmosphere, I love the statues and I'm always reading the awards and trophies. I'm sure I've captured as much as I can in my photos. It's like a museum in a school since there's a lot of history here. I have met many nice employees and feel welcome. I'm fortunate I've been able to visit inside to participate. I love this atmosphere when it's full of people! I don't want to post my people photos since they contain children and are personal.

    Parents beware of Ms Larkin - This place is scary…read more I enrolled my son in Kindergarten and was initially thrilled that he was going to get a Catholic education. He is a good 5 year old and has struggles with going to the bathroom at school. His teacher was initially sympathetic to our situation and was working with us to get it resolved but then Ms Larkin intervened. We were called into Ms Larkins office where she acted like dictator with zero compassion or flexibility. She demanded we get him fully potty trained and provided no resources to help. Following our meeting, she sent us a note saying our son could not attend the school until he had no accidents. We sent a note telling her the steps we were taking including pulling him from school to get intensive training. When we returned him to school, she systematically instituted a program of intimidation to force her will on us. She went directly after him instructing the teachers and staff to pull him from class anytime he had an accident and place him in isolation where had to sit in his own excrement until we picked him up - this happened multiple times and caused my son significant distress. We then pulled him for two weeks to get more intensive potty training that involved hiring an expert hoping this would resolve the situation. When we returned him school he had another accident because the program included a laxative regime and they pulled him again making him sit in a room alone for 2 hours without changing him - I almost cried at the pain they put this little boy through. Ms Larkin personally oversaw all of this instructing the staff to do her dirty work while they ruthlessly went directly after him with no regard to his education or feelings. She also called my wife after I sent her an email complaint trying to turn the situation back in us while using intimidation and leverage over us as working parents. I have never experienced such thuggish behavior in my entire life l and no less from a Catholic institution that claims to teach the Catholic faith. My son cried at home for months as we went through this trauma and it impacted all aspects of our family life. I want others to know the type of people they could be dealing with if their children have issues. Ms Larkin systematically leveraged the full force of her staff to go after a 5 year old boy and us as his parents with the ruthless purpose of making us bend to her will. It is sad, as a lifelong Catholic who just wanted his son have a Catholic education, to see this school and associated church stray so far from its stated purpose. I feel I need to write this so that others understand the type of behavior my 5 year old son and wife experienced at the hands of Ms Larkin and her staff. My only hope is that others will read this and understand what they are getting into or lodge similar complaints if they had issues like we had because this must be addressed.

    Aslam Alaikum wa rahmatulah wa barakatu,…read more If you are new or considering Islam come here. Disregard what was did years ago about them trying to make money. Except paying for classes I take I don't pay or get asked to pay or am forced or pressured to pay anything. Do understand that donations would help keep the place running but it isn't something pushed or forced on you. When I took the New Muslim class I received a free bag with books, a bottle for cleaning and a beautiful prayer rug. At some point I received prayer beads. Get free coffee or tea and snacks every class. I am also taking an Arabic learning class now. Both teachers I have had are super great. Patient and kind. Most staff there that I have met have been super nice and kind. They have events regularly. I haven't had chance to go because of work but insha'Allah I will go soon. They are great and I am glad I went as I was scared to all those months ago based on that review from 2 years ago. Thankfully I listened to my gut and went. Understand there are different schools of Islam that some follow such as hanafi, maliki, shafi'i and hanbali which are Sunni and there are others including shia Muslims. But just because there may be some difference​s such as if when you pray the placement of your hands. Doesn't mean we can't all be together and respect each other. If you are new do not worry about picking a school to follow. Learn what you can and eventually when you are ready and know which school works for you then fine but at your own time and place. Haven't been pressured to do anything here. The teacher for the new Muslim class would describe any such differences in an unbiased way. He also really want into subjects that we as reverts want answered but not many will go into sensitive topics. Ahhh I wrote a lot and wish I could keep writing to address any issues or doubt's some may have but you just have to go and see for yourself.

I have learned everything about Isalm at M.E.C.C.A center. A convert to Islam now approaching 10 yrs a muslim. Alhamdulilah ! I owe most of my knowledge and betterment of myself to the teaching I received and the people who run it! The best scholars and Imams are found here teaching. If your a convert or interested in discovering Islam this is the place to learn.

I enrolled my son in the 1st grade at HVA West elementary back in 2024, when at the time the principal was a role model of excellence. Having had a terrible incident at a public school in the neighborhood, during his KG year, whereby my little boy was punched in the face repeatedly by another student and I was not informed, I entrusted the staff of HVA with details about my family life thinking this was a safe space for my son to receive the care he requires. At first things were good, but by the second grade the staff changed, for the worse. The lack of respect, understanding and dishonest manipulation when it came to my son's paperwork, and overall safety such as for instance I recently came to find out that someone at HVA West placed my son's abusive father as the primary contact at the DOE, when they very well knew that there was so much family drama/really painful events unfolding that it would endanger my son and I to dismiss me as his primary caregiver and even worse, allow for allegations against me to circulate into a false CPS investigation. I would delve into the details of how finances were involved but I overshared with the school as it was. The stress they put me and my little boy under are unfathomable. The school let us down completely, my son felt unsafe there, I felt unsafe because of the lack of support from office staff, teachers and social workers who were meant to help protect us. My son's emotional health dwindled due to the lack of care and overall support/consideration. I would like to thank a couple of people who kept my son uplifted while he finished the school year, I believe they know who they are. As for everyone else, for shame, truly. It's safe to say that he will not be returning, and best of luck to the few staff members who remained true to their integrity and honored their roles as educators.
