Alum: I had an overall very good experience. Most of the faculty is very loving and cares a lot about all students, and the student government’s ideas are taken into consideration by administration often if there is something in particular the students see needs change. Academically, I was prepared very well for college. Our English department is phenomenal. Math department isn’t so good. Our student body was very involved, lots of fun clubs were available always. The climate was also good overall.... Read 170 reviews

Parent: I can't say enough good things about the teachers at St. Anne's-Belfield. My child lost a lot of ground learning virtually in public school during the pandemic. His teachers at St. Anne's have gone the extra mile to catch him up without making him feel bad (or even letting on that he's behind). Really love that he has access to learning resource specialists and the school counselor. Can't speak to athletics as he's more of a CS nerd (and the program is amazing btw!), but I understand they are stellar if that's your kids' thing. As with all private schools, I wish it were more diverse, but the school does a good job being intentional about diversity and inclusion so kids are aware and prepared to interact with people of all backgrounds and cultures, even if they don't see a lot on a daily basis....

Alum: I enjoyed the wide variety of personalities present through the staff. I had very caring teachers that nourished my learning experience. Throughout all four years at WHS I took many AP courses and all of the teachers were able to make the courses enjoyable and informative. I hope they make some upgrades in the facility especially in the bathrooms and rooms that require repairs and upgrades. Many of the bathrooms have broken stalls or sinks that cannot be used. There are also some broken doors and toilets making it challenging to find a working restroom. Once these problems are resolved with, the rest of the facility is pretty updated and well functioning.... Read 156 reviews

Parent: When choosing a school for our daughter, we wanted a place she could have a solid faith-based education; a place for her to establish roots. Monsignor Clarke did not only give her roots, it gave her wings to blossom and grow into an independent, strong young woman. The teachers challenge, yet maintain individual relationships; and we feel the integrated curriculum is preparing our daughter for high school. The school administration and staff has always been responsive and accessible to our concerns. The many and diverse clubs/sports have helped her establish friendships and new interests. We recommend Monsignor Clark highly.... Read 17 reviews

Alum: This school has very good academics. The music and arts programs are superb, and it is a safe school. Prepares students well for high school, many Pine Pointers go on to top boarding schools and colleges. It goes up to 9th grade, which is inconvenient for most, but those who stay go on field trips to Hawaii and Martha's Vineyard and go out on a boat searching for organisms in the nearby ocean every week. The sports teams are ok, and it is worth mentioning that the school lacks a cafeteria. The tuition is high, but it is worth sending your child for a couple years if you can afford it....

Parent: This education both nurtured our children and prepared them for the rigor of high school. Their days were spend in classrooms with teachers who really knew them and were role models for life long learning. The curriculum was challenging, experiential and reflected the complexity and beauty of the world. And everyday they went outside to play and explore! A great choice for our family.... Read 7 reviews

Senior: I like the atmosphere of this school very much. Both the teachers and officers are very enthusiastic. They will help me with patient if I encounter any problem in study or life. The type of courses is also very rich, which can meet my various needs. The classroom environment is very good, the number of students in one class is not much, therefore the teacher can take care of each student's learning state. We also have some self-selected activities, which enriches my free time and gives me a chance to study and perform.... Read 39 reviews

Parent: As the parent of two children in the lower school, I am extremely pleased with SSSAS. The Early Saints teachers make each day engaging for my 3-year-old. The monthly units the ES learn have prompted my son to apply what he’s learned to the world around him (the food unit they completed prompts a nightly discussion about which foods on his plate are muscle foods, brain foods, etc.). His teachers started a recent parent conference with 3 very specific adjectives to describe my son and given the examples they gave me, it is clear that really understand him as a whole child. My experiences with JK and K were also nothing short of fantastic; even during the pandemic the teachers were able to connect with my son. The K and 1st grade teachers have also provided my son a solid educational foundation; they have identified his strengths and given additional challenging work so that he hasn’t been bored. Any issues I’ve had have been quickly and appropriately addressed by his teachers.... Read 132 reviews
