Overall a decent school with strong academic focus. Traditional learning styles which could be much more creative given the proximity to our nations capital and rich, cultural, and artistic experiences. Easy to get lost if you are not at the top of the heap.

I enjoyed my time at St. Stephen's and St. Agnes School (SSSAS). One of my favorite things about SSSAS is the flexibility they give you to explore new things whether it's a new sport or class, there are many opportunities to try something new. Another thing I loved about SSSAS is the connection I had with my teachers. My teachers were always there to help and I always had a decent relationship with each of them.

It SSSA receiving money from the State? If so, state is dictating curriculum. Is SSSA a private school? Difficult to distinquish. Too much emphasis on sports and DEI.

I would NOT recommend this school. Bullying issues that the staff does NOT care about and does NOTHING about.
