This is our 4th year at St. Michael's and we can say we made the right choice. We came to St.Michael's during the pandemic. We were impressed how well the school addressed safety, academics, and mitigation strategies during the pandemic based on scientific guidelines. This is an inclusive community of administrative staff, teachers, maintenance crew , parents, and students. What we love about our school is the balance & value-based growth and development. Our daughter wakes every morning excited to go to school and learn - that in itself is such a blessing and proof that St. Michael's is great for our family. There are multiple opportunities for parents to volunteer &contribute. The administration takes feedback and concerns seriously and are very receptive to the needs of families here. The administration, staff, teachers and parents are the strong pillars of the St.Michael's community which we are grateful to be a part of.

St. Michael's is an outstanding school. The education is well-rounded, holistic and high quality. Character development and values are an important part of school life. The love and care given to my daughter is more than we could have hoped for! Teachers and admin are committed and care for all members of the family. We love the close family feel, small class sizes, and the care given to guiding our daughter through her academic and personal growth and development. We are blessed to be members of the St. Michael`s community and, with our daughter in second grade, we look forward to many more years!

I have always been a big believer in public schools. We chose our home based on the school district. I volunteered extensively every year. Eventually, I had to accept that the standard public school experience was failing my son, despite our best efforts. We acted on a recommendation from our neighbor and enrolled our son at St. Michael's. To say that his two years at this school (7th & 8th grades) transformed his life and trajectory is not an overstatement. His peers were welcoming, his teachers firm but nurturing. All the defenses he had built up from years of bullying fell away once he realized that he was safe and valued. The educational demands and individual expectations are high, but the support is unrivaled. My son excelled academically and in the arts, and was recognized and encouraged as a leader. He is confident and well-prepared for high school and beyond. We love St. Michael's School!
