St Barnabas

Your pick up situation SUCKS!!! Everyone’s double parked, vehicles are blocking on coming traffic. This is LAME!!! You need a better system! You do not deserve any stars!!! I’m FORCES to use 1 star just so I can post this review

Excellent school! we’ve never had a bad experience. we are very happy and satisfied in this school! My daughter is in kindergarten! Mrs Kellam is a great principal! Teachers are very dedicated, caring, patient, and knowledgeable. Mrs Padrick, Ms Hayes, Mrs Patti, Mrs Pricilla are all wonderful teachers!!! Mrs Herbold & day care teachers are so nice & friendly. Not only that, my daughter surprises us with all the things that she learned from school– both academics & religion. What more can we ask for?

Fantastic school! Teachers are truly genuine and care very deeply about your child, both academically and socially. Highly supportive staff and administration. Your needs and concerns will be addressed immediately. They have a computer lab that the students use more than 2x a week, a library, an art program, p. e weekly and music in the classroom. Small school with a wonderful family feeling!

St. Barnabas Preschool is a great way to start your children’s educational journey. The caring staff and the great, small, facility give a very ‘family’ feel to the place but as part of the overall school there is access to more facilities and support than a stand-​alone school. It was a great way to get to know the St. Barnabas school and our kids have easily transitioned from the Preschool into the Kindergarten with a sense of familiarity and security.

We have 2 children ages 8 &12. Both suffered serious injuries on the playground while under «supervision». My youngest was hospitalized and our oldest was take to urgent care. One schoolyard teacher accused our son of being careless and claimed he fell by himself. Several students came forward and told us he had been tripped on accident. When we confronted that teacher, she changed her story and admitted that she she didn’t «actually see what happened». Why would she then lie about it? The school was more concerned with their reputation & liability issues rather than the well being & proper care of our children. Additionally, there were inappropriate conversations between a gym teacher and students. This also resulted in another confrontation and a whole lot f excuses. The icing on the proverbial cake; an incredibly rude Monsignor, lack of one on one attention & educational growth in the classroom. All religion aside, I was also disappointed in their lack of passion, sincerity and empathy. Practice what you preach St.Barnabas. After 2 rough years at STB, we’re done. Our children are much more well adjusted at Hughes.
