School Reviews

We had a wonderful experience at St. Agnes Academy- St. Dominic School. Our son is in his fourth year at the school and our daughter started this year. The sense of community has been a huge blessing to us. It is so comforting to know that our children are loved and cared for physically, mentally, and spiritually. The school does a great job of connecting students of different ages and allowing them to learn from and support each other. Also, the student-to-teacher ratio provides an individualized approach to learning while in a group setting. It is such a unique school setting where we can have both our son and daughter on the same campus while catering to their different educational needs. Providing a coed experience and then strategically separating to all boys/all girls at pivotal times is one of the many factors that sets SAA-SDS apart. We love SAA-SDS and are excited to see what the future has to offer and how it is shaping our children into successful and well-rounded individuals.
