    This review is long overdue! My son attended Springstone from 6th to 8th grade and it was the…read moreperfect spot for him. The classes are small, a max of 8 kids, and the teacher's move from room to room, so students can focus on getting regulated and ready for the next subject, instead of packing up and having to move rooms in a hurry. They have movement breaks, where they walk around outside to get fresh air. The campus is in a wooded part of Lafayette that was so pleasant to drop him at every day. They follow the common core, so I knew he was getting the curriculum his peers were getting in public school, but in a calmer atmosphere with teachers who could support his focus and executive functioning. The material is adjusted for students that need more support or time to write responses to questions for example. The most unique part of their Middle School program is the ACCESS days where the kids went out into the community to practice things like public transportation, shopping, ordering in restaurants, etc. This grew his confidence in such cool ways. There is also sleepaway camp for two nights in the beginning of the school year. When he went for the first time, I was so nervous, but after that first year, I was able to help assure the new parents that their child will have a great time just like my child did. Other pros: He couldn't hide in a sea of 30 kids anymore; the teachers were paying attention! There was homework club after school staffed by the teachers so if he fell behind, he could get caught up. The parents were amazing, as friends and as resources! He felt comfortable being himself and made friends with some nice kids.

    As a parent, Springstone School in Lafayette can be identified as the greatest school in the world…read more Choosing Springstone School in Lafayette has proven to be an optimal decision--it is not simply a school, it is a structured environment.

    We are so grateful for the positive experience our daughter has had at Noble Learning Academy this…read moreyear. She transferred from a large public middle school where she often felt lost socially and overwhelmed by the large class sizes and disruptive environment. Looking back, we only wish we had made the move sooner. At Noble, she has found a nurturing and supportive community where she truly feels seen and valued. The small class sizes have made such a difference, both academically and emotionally. She has made meaningful friendships and has really been embraced by both the students and staff. One of the things we appreciate most is the hands-on learning and enriching field trip opportunities that simply were not possible at her previous big public school. We have also been so impressed with Principal Cassie and how involved and hands-on she is with the students and families. Her leadership creates a warm, welcoming environment where the children genuinely feel supported and cared for. The change has been incredibly positive for our daughter. We now plan to send our son to NLA when he enters middle school.

She would often talk about interesting discussions she had in class or assignments she was working on. We found the teachers very supportive and went out of their way to help our family. My son is there now and likes his classes and the other children there a lot. We really appreciate being part of NLA's warm and inclusive community.

    We enrolled our kids in 2019. One of our pediatric colleagues highly recommended St. P. He, along…read morewith others, said that St. P really goes the extra mile to serve each student and their family. Another parent reviewer said, "As an educator, I am always impressed by the lengths to which the faculty works to meet the needs of individual students. Creating a triad consisting of student, parent, and teacher is the framework in which they set the goals and objectives for student success." For the above reasons, we enrolled our kids. We found that in 2019, the triad existed. It was wonderful!! We really felt welcomed, our kids were cared about, and we quickly settled. Fast forward...COVID. That spring was a disaster - no two ways about it. No one to blame at all. In the fall of 2020, we quickly noticed a distinct shift in staff attitude, and the school's overall mood changed. Suddenly, things that were "no big deal" became huge deals. We felt like we were constantly "in trouble" for some unrecognized infraction. By 2021, fall, I recognized what went wrong (likely). The administration's response to COVID and the public school shutdown was to allow over-enrollment at St. P. We went from 15 -23 students per classroom to over 30 with one upper grade at 38. So, in short - we were paying a premium for a crappy public school experience! YAY US. Within a year: The support staff for "student success" left or went very part-time. We were suddenly getting calls from other parents asking for our thoughts on how we felt about the school, the principal, and certain teachers. Then, the Principal, an office staffer in charge of admissions, and the parish padre - all retired or left the building. We began to look elsewhere. Nothing is perfect, however, when a solidly performing educational program changes so significantly that its change negatively impacts students and their opportunities - one has to walk away.

    The school is amazing! The faculty and staff of the school are some of the most supportive people…read morewe've ever encountered. They have top notch technology and teachers that lay an educational foundation for our children that is not found in most schools. I can't recommend St. Perpetua's Community, parish, inclusiveness more. If you're looking for a quality education, this is where you should send your children. Our kids have been there since TK and we look forward to many more years at St. Perpetua.

    This review is based solely on the tennis courts…read more This is our 2nd tennis tournament at Bentley and I love the nice and clean lay out. It's conveniently located off the freeway and very easy to find. After all, it is only 3 exits away from our house. I love that there are lots of trees surrounding the area, with beautiful blossoms. Early morning air is nice and refreshing. Might even convince myself to come out and take a nice stroll someday, which I rarely do. So good luck to me on that thought... Parking lot can get a little crowded when there are a lot of parents here to watch their kids play, but there is also street parking available. The people in charge of the tennis tournaments are good and fair. Unfortunately, seating arrangements aren't as comfortable as one would like, but it's a kids' tournament...we're not expecting pro tennis treatment.

This is one of the best private high schools in the area and has a very good matriculation rate especially for a school that is so new. The teachers here are also very good. It is located right next to HWY 24 and can be seen from the high way. It makes this school a good choice for your kids even if you live further away (not considering the traffic on 24, especially through the Caldecott Tunnel). The sports teams for the high school are not the best in the area but are still a good alternative for the students. The school boasts its own field and tennis courts. The buildings are painted with multiple colors which can look good to some but kind of odd to others. I personally am not a fan of the paint job. This is a great place to go to school.

    St. Mary's is a Catholic school with strong academics and lots of love. All four of my kids went…read morehere. My grandson has the same third grade teacher that his Mom had! Teacher retention is highest in the diocese. Jenny Bellows is the current principal and a top-notch educator; a Carondelet grad. She's a gift to the school. The teachers singing and dancing on stage at the end of last year's concert was priceless! If you are just looking for a private school as an alternative to public education - you are looking in the wrong place. It's a Catholic school - with huge parent involvement/commitment - checking homework, fundraising (if you know you know), participation in Mass, faith families (older kids mentor the younger). The hall is lined with all the graduates. People often write negative reviews, but check things out for yourself. I'm blessed my kids went here.

    We wanted to love this school, and things started out strong but have continued to decline over…read morelast few years. Certainly, this place used to have a great reputation. Those days are over. They can't hold onto their staff, so many teachers leave every year. The new principal (Mrs Bellows) was just placed for lack of better options, after being the ineffective Vice Principal for many years. We were hopeful she'd excel in this role, but she can't seem to staff appropriately or address problematic situations at the school. The sixth grade math teacher quit within the first week of school last fall, they never hired a replacement, and instead the new Vice Principal taught math, which she is ill equipped for. We pay a lot of money for this private education, but the class sizes are all over 30 kids, and the kids are all behind in their studies. A real disappointment.
