Rev Rachel is so bright, her sermons always captivating and she places the Gospel readings in the context of the times in which they were written. She is a Social Justice Warriorette! Full of life and love, I was immediately sold. Episcopalians were the first Christians to ordain Native Americans, and in the mid 1900's ordained a man who had not even been welcomed as a "citizen." My kids were Christianed in the early 80's by a woman and for my second kid she was hugely pregnant. And then of course, gays were welcomed into the fold. There are Episcopal Churches that are Very Conservative and then there's Trinity. Open hearted, open minded and I'm so happy I've found it!

St. Michael's has been such a blessing for our family, and we feel grateful every single day that…read moreour children get to learn and grow here. From the moment you walk into the building, there is a sense of warmth, purpose, and faith that is truly unique. The school is grounded in strong values, academic excellence, and a genuine dedication to helping each child flourish. We have been especially grateful for the incredible teachers who have made such a meaningful impact on our children. Mrs. Meza creates an environment where our kiddos feel safe, confident, and curious -- and as a parent, there is nothing more comforting than seeing your 3 year-old run into school with excitement each morning. In kindergarten, Mrs. Melander has been nothing short of extraordinary. Her gift for combining structure with creativity, and rigor with kindness, has helped our child truly thrive. We have been blown away by our sons academic growth and character development in a way that feels deeply personal and incredibly thoughtful. We also cannot say enough about the Principal Rivera's leadership. The transformation and forward momentum we've seen under her guidance have been remarkable. She leads with vision, integrity, and heart -- always striving to make the school stronger while keeping faith and community at the center. Her presence is felt in the culture, the communication, and the overall experience of St. Michael's Catholic School and Parish. We feel so thankful for the direction she has brought to the school. St. Michael's is more than a school to us -- it's a community, a home, and a place where our children are known, loved, and lifted. Sending our kids here has truly been one of the best decisions we ever made.

There is great structure and uniforms allow each student to blend in as equals. The is a huge playground and field for outdoor activities. The school work is perfect for their age/ development. There is not a lot of homework. The tests and projects reflect the studied material. The principle, Dr Mathews, is very very kind and sweet. Tuition is very affordable and negotiable. Great morals and values are taught here. They are peace builders. Highly recommended!!! Before care opens at 7am and after care runs until 6pm

We were SO EXCITED to find this school! Infant massage, yoga, a great campus, delicious meals from…read morea chef... the list went on and on. Things aren't always what they seem though. Our child was there just a bit over a year and had 13 different teachers. One left during her shift and never came back, many others assured us they would be sticking around but then dropped like flies. The entire school seems to be a revolving door of staff which is never a good sign. Promises kept changing as they upped the number of kids in the rooms but continued to brag about how fantastic their ratios were. Sure they added teachers to the rooms but then teachers kept quitting and were complaining about not having proper breaks and staffing. There were ongoing requests to donate money and supplies to the classrooms - maybe it would have made sense to just increase the tuition by 10 or 20 bucks a month- I'm happy not to have to deal with this at our new daycare. Our journey ended when it became apparent that the children weren't being properly supervised and due to a safety issue we had to make a complaint to childcare licensing. The director then decided to send out updates about our complaint in emails and in Facebook posts where other staff and parents were allowed to mock the situation. Very unprofessional especially considering that the state department of licensing was in the process of citing them for lack of appropriate supervision. Licensing also helped deal with the issue of the staff not having kids regularly wash their hands (like when they came in from outside to eat meals). I feel for some of the teachers who were good but couldn't stick around. The idea behind this school is great and it would be awesome if well executed and managed.

We had high expectations of this school. The facilities and food program are great, and many of the…read moreteachers are awesome. However, the management was not consistent and had a lot of knee-jerk reactions to situations which affected our child's well being. They were very inconsistent with what they promised versus what was delivered. They claim to be child-led in philosophy, but the decisions made didn't seem to have the children's best interest in mind, rather, what was best for the administration and school seemed to be prioritized. Additionally, they were terrible at dealing with issues that arose with parents. Myself and several other parents I knew at the school were consistently told "well, group care isn't for everyone" or "that's why some people decide to hire a nanny" EVERY SINGLE TIME there was an issue--big or small. This led to fearing we were being told to leave the school. After leaving and seeing how other facilities operate and handle issues with parents, I am very glad we made the decision to leave.

Coming back to stay I still love this school! Our family has been at University Cooperative School…read morefor 10yrs - my 15yr old attended K-5th grade, and I currently have a 4th grader and my youngest is in PreK. We are incredibly grateful for this school, the holistic education it's provided our children and the community that has been the anchor for our family life. The teachers are excited about what they teach, care deeply for the students. With enthusiasm for their subjects and the freedom and support they need to follow that enthusiasm they make engaging, responsive, project based learning the norm all through the program. The kids stay excited about learning, comfortable asking questions and learn to ask for what they need as a learner. Our modern lives are designed in a way that is isolating and can wearus down with the load of demands of parenting- but the model of cooperative school (that's very flexible/understands we work too!) means that you can build real relationships and community in a society where that can be incredibly hard. At U co-op our children end up with so many loving adults who know and care for them - I can't overstate how valuable that is. Especially when life brings rough seasons or crisis. We know each other's kids and support each other through this parenting journey. The nurturing, adventurous environment helps kids be comfortable and confident in themselves -quirks and struggles included. My kids love going to school and I love the joyful childhood it has given them.

We have loved this place…read more We've been with U Co-op for the last two years, with almost a year and a half of that during the pandemic. I can't express how incredible the school has been. The most extraordinarily compassionate teachers and staff, and a parent community that has been supportive, resourceful, kind and caring. There is a warmth to the building (which we are thankfully back in - and masked) that we fell in love with from the first tour. It didn't feel cold or modern; it felt like creativity and childhood. There are nooks for reading, spaces for found art, paintings up everywhere. The teachers allow the children to follow their curiosity and even adjust the lessons to be relevant to the things that interest them. The kids are learning just as much as peers at other schools, but in a way that focuses on their self development and self esteem. This school has been a great find and has helped carry us through this difficult stretch.

I am incredibly grateful for the positive experience we've had with all of our kids' teachers. The school does an excellent job of integrating strong academic standards with faith based values, and I love that my kids have gained a religious foundation by attending Mass and praying regularly. The school hosts a variety of events throughout the year that bring families together and strengthen the community. From trunk-or-treat to the annual Craft Fair, to the Bite of St. Brendan and the family dance, there is always something that encourages connection and involvement. All the activities and events create lasting memories for the students and truly reflect the welcoming spirit of the school. I strongly recommend St. Brendan to any family looking for an environment where their child can thrive academically, spiritually, and socially.
