Provided by YP.comCurriculum is okay,however, when you question the Principal and the office assistant regarding tests scores and how well the school does compared to others, they never give you any definitive answers and tell you that you can come in to look at the information they have in the office. Other schools that have superior test results publish their ratings in their school brochure.What should that tell you about this over-priced Catholic school? As the other reviewer stated,there is DEFINITELY an elitist atmosphere here--especially in the HSA.The HSA at St. John's is run by stepford moms that look down their noses at anyone that doesn't drive a Mercedes and wear a mink coat to school functions. Puhhhlease!!! The "rules" change every year and usually not for the better. They need to get the sour- faced ,zero personality "administrative assistant" out of there, and trade up to a younger Principal that doesn't imagine him/herself as an autocratic ruler. Weekly handouts sent home with the children that berate the parents for such imagined offences as "gossiping" or treating the inappropriately attired car-line "honey" rudely. Proper attire should be expected from EVERYONE that works at, or volunteers for, the school. It works both ways there,sister. Pun intended.

Provided by YP.comOutstanding curriculum. Core Christian values taught. They could improve the H.S.A and should try to work at curbing some of the elitist's input.
