My child attended Montessori for Pre-K and St Joseph for K-8. Thanks to a recommendation from the nurse at St Joseph, my child applied, was accepted, and attended MAST, Sandy Hook for 9th-12th grade. She then attended TCNJ to receive a BS in Business. She later attended NYU to attain her MBA. Bless those people at St Joseph and especially that nurse.
