School Reviews
| 5 I couldn't be happier with the faith filled and strong academic community of St. Jude School. We have had all of our children in St. Jude and have found the school to be a wonderful balance of academic strength in a supportive and still structured environment. The children are expected to excel in their school work, morals and behavior. - Posted by Parent - cpsca |
| 5 I have been so pleased with our educational experience at St. Jude. I am amazed at the academic programs which are offered. My children have been learning Spanish from a very young age and my older children are in advanced math classes, which is very impressive for a smaller school. The recent technology enhancements have been wonderful. By integrating iPads into various classrooms, the teachers have been able to supplement the information which is found in the text books. My children are so happy when they come home every day. Happy kids = happy parents! Keep up the great work, St. Jude! - Posted by Parent - dcana |

These attributes of St. Jude school will help guide my children in their future endeavors. - Posted by Parent - jkoke |
