Middle School Student: Good enough. The teachers are great and most of the material is taught well. The way they organize the students is good and creative. I wish some of the teachers were a bit more flexible in how they get the information across, and there were a larger amount of different core classes you could take. It prepares its students well for High School though but isn't the most efficient in keeping the students kind and motivated. The school spirit is okay, but it is a bit overboard in trying to keep the students in check, which gets them a bit more out of line. It offers great computers and other supplies to the students, allowing them to expand their learning capabilities, and still keeps a good balance between work done online vs. on paper. It doesn't assign an overwhelming amount of homework, but there is quite a bit, so I would consider that before sending your child here. I like the school and I think it is pretty decent, but there are definitely some things that could be better.... Read 5 reviews

Parent: The Admissions department made the application process seamless. They were easy to reach; gladly returned phone calls and inquiries; and, assisted with the application process during each step. Compared to other independent college prep institutions, RMA is a small school. However, we were thoroughly impressed with the diversity that we saw during the summer camp program; We were pleased to see that it carried over to the academic year. The curriculum is rigorous. The staff is caring. There are a variety of extracurricular activities that are day and boarding inclusive. Any family "on the fence" about RMA should definitely consider a second look, or reach out to staff. You'll be glad you did!... Read 163 reviews

Parent: My daughter began attending St. Bernadette School in the 7th Grade following our move to Northern Virginia. We couldn't be more pleased with her experience. The teachers, staff, student and parents are dedicated, kind, and caring. They helped her transition to a rigorous Catholic education, including first-time instruction in religion, grammar, cursive, and Spanish. The school is part of a vibrant parish; the priests are about campus and in the classroom. St. Bernadette School is Catholic education at its best!... Read 34 reviews
