    don't come here, or send your kids here. it will physically and mentally drain the crap out of you…read more this school advertises unity and community, but that couldn't be farther then the truth. the stuff cares about anything but your self worth and your well being. They don't care about how your doing mentally or physically. The counsalrs don't do crap. don't just come here because it's "fancy" or "collage prep" Because that said "collage prep," is just making you work harder in school during summer just so the staff can get a extra pay check. if you want your kids to feel good about them selves, don't send them here. Bullying= they don't help. waste of time and money. do better SFHS

    I am a HUGE fan of St. Francis High School! My daughter transferred mid semester this year (into…read more9th grade) and she (and we) couldn't be happier. The admissions department helped us to get everything in place quickly and very patiently answered all of our questions. The guidance counselor met with us the first morning and got us squared away easily. Everyone has been so friendly and willing to answer questions and explain how it all works. (I ask a lot of questions!) My daughter absolutely loves her teachers and has made a lot of friends. She is dyslexic and STF was able to personalize her course levels to match where she is in different subjects. She's not only excelling in her classes but, for the first time ever, is excited to go to school. Yes there are uniforms, but she's used to that so that wasn't a problem. All in all....I truly wish I could give St. Francis 6 stars!

    We have two children that started going to PCS in first grade and graduated after the eighth grade…read more I cannot even begin to describe the positive impact this school has had on our family. My daughter had to get up in front of a large class at UGA this week and was totally at ease because of all the poetry recitals they had at Perimeter. She also talked about how comfortable she is speaking to and interacting with adults because of the large presence of the parents at PCS. As parents, the school helped us focus on the hearts of our children. We got to be part of a community where we all looked out for each other's kids. Being part of a covenant community was a wonderful part of raising our kids. Our children received a wonderful foundation and were taught by teachers that love the Lord and shared this love with our kids. Our kids learned scripture and can defend their faith. They were also challenged academically and have continued to thrive academically since graduating from PCS. I'm so thankful we decided to send our kids to PCS.

    I attended Perimeter Christian School from 4th through 8th grade, and I believe prospective parents…read moredeserve to hear about my experience before making a decision about whether to enroll their children. One incident that has stayed with me occurred when I was in 7th grade. During a class taught by Ken DeMaris, I referred to then-President Barack Obama simply as "Obama." Mr. DeMaris became very upset and told me I was being disrespectful by not calling him "President Obama." He instructed me to leave the classroom for the remainder of the period. As I was preparing to leave, I asked whether I should take my binder with me. Mr. DeMaris responded by throwing the binder directly at me. As I was not expecting violence from a teacher, and he was within arms length of me, i was caught off guard and the binder struck me in the face, causing my mouth to bleed. I immediately went to the office of Principal Mary Hubbard. Instead of expressing concern about what had happened, her response was immediately, "I'm sure he had a reason.". I think it is important to highlight that this was not a playful toss, it was a forceful throw with visible anger behind it. As an 11 year old student standing in the office with blood dripping down my chin from my mouth, that response left a lasting impression on me. What troubled me most was not only the incident itself, but the apparent willingness and haste of school leadership to excuse it. A second incident involved the school's PE teacher, Patrick Mullrennan. After I and two other students sang the national anthem before a school volleyball game, Mr. Mullrennan concluded that our performance was disrespectful to the United States, claiming , "during the performance the boys were sticking their fingers in each others rear ends", despite not a single witness/attendee corroborating his story. Within moments of finishing, he pulled us aside, grabbed me by the neck, physically restrained us, and began yelling at us (I am proud to say I truly gave the best performance I could and have never and will never directly disrespect the United States in that way, but there was absolutely no way of reasoning with Patrick). Another experience that I believe parents should know about was an event the school called "Slave Day" when I was in 5th grade. The stated purpose was to teach students what slavery was like before emancipation. Parents volunteered to act as "slave masters" alongside teachers, and students were subjected to verbal and physical abuse throughout the day. During the event, Mr. Mullrennan pushed me to the ground while shouting, "What are you looking at, slave?" Looking back, I find the entire concept deeply inappropriate and disturbing, especially coming from people who are supposed to be examples of Godly leaders. I am sharing these experiences because they had a profound impact on me. Rather than seeing Christian values modeled through humility, compassion, accountability, and grace, I often felt I was witnessing authoritarianism exercised through intimidation and humiliation. Those experiences played a significant role in causing me to question both the institution and the faith it claimed to represent. At the same time, I want to acknowledge one individual who left a positive and lasting impression on me: Clint Fisher. To this day, he remains one of the best examples of humility, integrity, and genuine Christian character that I have encountered. He consistently treated students with respect and kindness and demonstrated the values that I believe a Christian school should strive to embody. In many ways, he stood as a bright light in stark contrast to the darkness embodied by so many of the teachers and leaders, and I remain grateful for his influence. This review reflects my personal experience as a student. I encourage parents to conduct their own research, speak with former students, and ask detailed questions about school culture, accountability, and how student concerns are handled before making a decision.

    Staff at St. Aiden's made my child's first day of preschool a living nightmare…read more Upon picking my child up from his first day of school he informed me that another child had hit him. I approached his teacher, Ms. Patty, and asked to speak with her in regards to this matter. Once I told Ms. Patty what my son had told me she instantly became very defensive. She immediately came to the other child's defense and straight out accused my son of lying. I asked her how they handle altercations between children and her response was "typically we would speak to both students and their parents BUT it didn't happen." After several minutes of being accused of lying I decided to leave with my son. Not only did this upset my son but it also tainted the image I had portrayed of how teachers are supposed to be. Supportive, friendly and trustworthy. Our experience with Ms. Patty was none of the above. To make matters worse, minutes after leaving the facility I received an extremely aggressive email from the director, Julie. She did not ask me any questions about the conversation that took place. Instead, she came to Ms. Patty's defense and threatened to kick my son out. Given the experience we had on our son's first day, my husband and I agreed we were not comfortable leaving our son in their care. Leaving us no choice, we removed our son from this preschool. We let the director know our decision and requested a full refund. We were only given a PARTIAL refund and were still charged fees. Nothing was explained to us and no further contact was made by the school. I made the mistake of assuming this preschool was a warm, inviting environment due to it being linked to a church. I was sadly mistaken. Patty was extremely bias and made my child feel embarrassed, unheard and unworthy. Julie, the director, turned around and did the same to me.

    My daughter has been at St. Aidans since she was 18 months old; she is now 4. Her teachers have…read morebeen so wonderful throughout the years. She loves going to school everyday and a huge part of that is the environment that St. Aidans fosters. Their curriculum has always been exactly what she needed and her teachers have always been able to challenge her academically and encourage her imagination and creativity as well. The class sizes are just right so that she is provided with personalized instruction as well as lots of friends to play with! St. Aidans has been such a blessing to us these last three years! We absolutely love it.
