Belonging, inclusiveness, community are 3 words that come to mind when I think about our experience here at St. Timothy's. Everone from the teachers, staff, parents and principal deeply care for my children. To have a principal that knows each child and each family by name sure says a lot. I know my children are safe, have made deep connections with peers and are getting the best education and support. I cannot recommend St. Timothy's enough.

Be careful, this is not a good school at all. They are not respectful for individuals. When they realized some challenges, they tried their best to kick you off. Totally a terrible experience.
