School Reviews

This school changed my son's life. We enrolled in SJB because our public middle school had such a bad reputation and my son has an OHI . This school and especially Jacob Biscan was open accepting and impacted my son to the point where he ( now 17) always wants to go back and visit. He's had great success in our public HS but it's all due to the foundation laid at SJB
