Experience with St. Theresa's School

Please provide feedback positive and negative regarding St. Theresa's School. Our 9 year old daughter had a great experience at Legacy Elem school this past year but thanks to the boundary committee, she will be attending Creighton's Corner next year for 4th grade. We are investigating St. Theresa's School as an alternative.
Also, if your child goes there, is there a car pool possibility?
Thanks for your honest comments.

The lower teacher to student ratio at Creighton's Corner is not a bad thing considering how crowded our schools already are..... that's the positive thing about the switch. I've heard both ways about St. Theresa's - some people are really happy but I also know of some that have pulled their kids because they feel the education is not as competitive.... I however do not speak from personal experience.

 

I'm not speaking from experience either - but I have also heard the quality of education is not as good either there.

 

What information do you have that Creighton Corners is not as good as Legacy?

 

My son attends Creighton's Corner and we have had nothing but a positive experience there. The staff is wonderful and caring and he has thrived this past school year. Since it's not a full school, the kids are getting much more one-on-one attention. Enrollment will be up for the fall but it still won't be as full as most of the schools in the area. I have met with the asst. principal on several occasions and I am sure if you have any questions or concerns, she will be happy to address them for you. PM me and I will forward all of her contact info.

 

Please understand that I would like to hear from first hand St Theresa parents. I'd rather not turn this into a debate between Legacy and Creightons Corner.
Thanks,
Ron

 

FYI, I was just offering some first hand Creighton's experience - not debating anything.

 

got it.
Thanks very much.

 

Doesn't seem like there's a lot of St. T's parents on here. I was also wanting to hear from some as we're thinking of sending our son there for kindergarten to start getting exposure to religious education as well as a full day program.

 

I think they only have a half day program too unless it changed.

 

Yesterday I spoke with a mom with a child at St. Theresa's and she said that at first they weren't happy with it (I don't know why, sorry) but they like it okay now. Her big complaint in our brief conversation was the pickup and dropoff system. Apparently you enter the parking area to pick up and nobody can leave until all the children are in their cars, then you leave one by one. Wish I had more info for you but we only had a few minutes to talk.

I know someone else with a child there so I'll try to find out more.
