I was amazed by how many people knew my daughter's name on the very first day. This is not something I expected or even thought possible. The entire staff at SVDP, including the principal, truly love and care about our children's well-being and education. The teachers are a blessing. I have volunteered in the classrooms and seen how amazing they are and how the kids respond to them. My daughter loves going to school every day, is getting a good education, learning a second language, and improving upon her social interactions with other people. They create a safe and educational environment and I know I made the right choice sending my daughter to SVDP.

This school is a Dual-language immersion program that facilitates bi-literacy in English and Spanish. The school has done a beautiful job of developing my child's Spanish. And my kids love the strong community they have built! The staff is amazing with my children and have really made an effort to get to know them on an individual basis and cater to their needs.

Saint Vincent de Paul dual immersion school has been excellent in our daughters education process. Their teachers are wonderful. Our goal for our daughter was to learn spanish and religion. She is doing so great we are convinced that we made the best decision by enrolling her in this school.

It's my son's first year and first time attending a school and we made a good decision having him at St. Vincent de Paul. I can tell because he loves being there, he will tell me about his day and how much fun he had, I see him develop physically and mentally, making friends and learning about God. I'm very thankful for his teachers for helping and guide him on his development.
