December 11,2012 - I am the parent of two St Louis School attendees. I must admit that I had many doubts when choosing a Catholic-based educational system for my children. My fear was that my children would develop self hatred from being taught certain interpretations of the Bible. However, I could not have been more wrong. Never once have either of my children complained about bullying or teasing related to there families. Although this fear was very real, I met with several individuals from the school and my mind was put at ease. St Louis provides an outstanding education, leadership preparation, instills morals and values, and is helping mold my children into the little adults in transition that I want so much for them to be: kind, courteous, respectful, giving, altruistic, ingenious and well rounded in every sense of the words. In comparison to area public schools, my children are grades ahead of there public school peers. The teachers are genuine, interested and involved in the children''s lives. Religion is taught daily, with weekly gym and art (I do however wish gym and art where more frequent.) Dr Trouville is an amazing principle. It warms my heart to see her each day, rain or shine, greeting each and every student by name as they enter the building. Additionally, as a bonus, this happens to be one of the lesser expensive private schools in the area, however, i would pay double to keep my children in there educational system! 5******-Posted by Parent *

Here are a dozen or so girls' schools' public thoughts about themselves and their missions.
Make Summer a Special Time!
If you have children in private school, then you are most likely looking at three months, perhaps even longer, which you must fill with activities of one kind or another during the long summer break.
Are You Liable?
Is your DEL key about to get gaveled? It doesn't matter whether you teach in a public or private school setting. You expose yourself to legal risks every single day on the job.
