My old school was... not good. When I got here, I was, well, surprised. They have a lot of programs, personalized areas, fund raising, Math Matters ( where students learn advanced math, and P.S, I'm in it ;)),and benefactors. My old school was far from that. Everyday at school was just 8 hours of "learning"(*ahem* Actually we didn't do much learning.) and then we just go home. No programs, no benefactors, cas um who wants to help that school?????? So St Francis was a very different experience here. Maybe I'm rating I to high, or, maybe too low. I don't know. I've never been to a "real REAL" school, so I don't know.

My school has many programs dealing with various safety guidelines and consistent safety habits. We engage in lots of conversations like bullying, cyber bullying, cyber safety,drugs,health,brochures and we have a peace room designed for students that have conflicts with one another to sit and talk differences out. There is a nurse two days out of a week personally she be on board more days.

I have four children that attend this school. In the beginning, awesome and now it slowly started to go down and down. The teacher turn over rates are high and the new teachers are not nurturing and do not want to engage with the students. It seems as though the school is now in punishment mode and...

I have three children who have graced the halls of St Francis de Sales. The school has seen changes over the years but like most of us change does not come easy. My youngest was turned away after 4 years there. She was not given a chance or even a notice that she would not be welcomed back. This is...
