The art program is one of the only positive things I can say about this school. There are a few teachers who are compassionate and provide a rigorous academic experience, but that is not the norm. The thing that bothers me the most is they claim to be an environment that fosters compassion and is faith based. The administration and a fair amount of their staff are not compassionate to all students. If you are considering sending your child here, save your money.

I had a wonderful ten years here. Everyone is extremely supportive, and the classes are genuinely very fun. 10000 out of 5 stars!

We have been at Charlottesville Catholic for several years and have been very happy. My now 6th grade son is thriving and enjoys school. We feel CCS is academically advanced and has great opportunities for character building and individual responsibility. My son has a great group of friends and especially loves the leadership opportunities and the encouraging and nurturing teachers. I highly recommend Charlottesville Catholic School. A fantastic diverse community of parents as well.

When I toured the school they painted a picture that they had staff that focuses on teaching to multiple learning levels through differentiation and this could not be farther from the truth. The rigor for my child is not there. I pulled him out of public school for this reason and I have been extrem...

Honestly? Coming from a past student from CCS, if I have to be so blunt here, the school did not do well with some things, such as developing character or dealing with homework. It gave burden amounts of homework, and students who had learning disabilities often struggled to comprehend information,...

CCS has lost numerous families and great teachers in recent years. Gifted students are held back and there is no suport for kids with special needs of any kind. Boys in particular can expect to be overly criticized and erroneously labeld as having behavioral or learning problems. The administration...
