My two daughters attend St. Charles. The teachers are hardworking, caring, and professional. The administration is top class. As a sixteen year teacher in public education, the school culture created by the faculty and staff is priceless. My family is made to feel as valued contributors in the St. Charles Community. Ive had the privilege of working for/with remarkable administrators. Mr. Nadeau and Mrs. Mates are easily in that class. The financial officer, Ms Williams is a blessing. If you are willing to do more than drop your kids off and pick them up at the bell. If you want a partner in the growth of your childrens spiritual and educational journey, then St. Charles Borromeo Catholic School is the place.

Im not sure about the school side, but i do like the church side. I am not Catholic, but i still like to stip here once and a while to see the alter amd decorations. I was here just after Easter, and the alter was so beautiful! The Orchids and lillies! So many of them! The orchids were so big! It would have been so lovely to have been able to have one that size to bring home. However, i did not like the prayer candles. They are just little flickering lightbulbs now instead of actual candles. There is something peaceful and soothing about lighting candles

This is the best school I have experienced for my child. The school is vey attentive to each childs needs, and creates a connected and collaborative atmosphere among the children, teachers, administrators, and parents. I highly recommend this school and from my own personal knowledge of founding and owning a school in the past, St Charles is doing it right as far as Im concerned. St Charles far exceeds expectations both academically and administratively. As a current doctoral student enrolled in an education program, St Charles aligns consistently what is being taught, how schools, administrators and curriculum should operate. Overall this school is outstanding!!!

I love this school. Since we arrived all the staff has been very friendly and they know all the names of the kids. They teach to pray and how to live a christian life. My son is very happy and is challenged to keep doing good in all his classes. I recommend this school 💯.

My grand daughter is new there and starting as a middle schooler. I wish she had went when they first moved to the area. Teachers, staff as well as students have all been very welcoming and friendly. Feels like a christian school should.....Thank you all!!!

Worse school ever! The teacher was rude to the kids and had no idea what she was doing. The VPK kids are forced to sit through 60-90 minute mass then cant even play outside after, they then have to sit through hours of class instruction. My child hated school after going here. They hardly played outside and when they did, it was right before pick up. Dont send your kids here!

The school was horrible. (Most) of the staff were poor, unprepared, and the place was understaffed. Most of the staff were bad at there jobs. One of the worst was the computer lab/media teacher, she didnt bearly know how to use a computer. The food was horrible, one kid was even hurt by getting hit by one of their bread sticks. I even knew kids who left the school leaving catholism behind. Dont waste your money.

Awful, the coach is a MORON! He tries to direct traffic in the mornings, if you dont turn where he wants you to turn he will yell HEY and have a dumb founded look on his face, while trying to embarrass you. When i called to complain, i got an email from the principal saying that my interactions are unacceptable. If you are a few days late on your payment for tuition, you will receive several threats by email from the principal and Jennifer Williams saying you cannot bring your child in the next day unless paid in full right now. The pastor smokes cigarettes in front of the church on campus during school hours, so beware of that. The maintenance man sit in the back of the school by the track and drinks beer all day long and then drives around doing absolutely nothing while putting children at risk of being hit by a drunk driver. His name is Mr Rey, i am not sure if he is still working there or not. Mr Nadeau will never sympathize with anyone who isnt a staff member. In order to get the church pastor tuition discount, you MUST donate money every week to the church and you must put it in your envelope with your name on it to show that you give them money. Otherwise you can forget the discount EVEN IF YOU PUT CASH IN THE BASKET. I have argued with the school for months about this , they will not BUDGE!!!!!!!

*FRAUD ALERT* Terrible administration. Nathan Nadeau is a hypocrite who never once looked myself or my husband in the eye. In fact he continues to dodge our calls and tells the receptionist to say hes off campus every time we call yet my husband went to the school and saw him there. My son was only enrolled there because of Mrs. Mates nice presentation. Needless to say I should have done more research before investing a enrollment fee + uniform + school supplies (most of them are shared with the whole grade) AND $650 a month. This school is a fraud and should be shut down immediately. They give steep discounts/free tuition to underprivileged kids so basically your child is going to public school and if you work hard enough/make enough money, you will also get to pay for underprivileged childrens tuition. Those parents will of course tell you how wonderful the school is. The P.E coach called my son trash and sent me an aggressive email with the headline talk to your son... alot needs to change at this school with the administration and teachers. My son was bullied at this school daily and physically assualted. The school grounds are dirty and outdated. The classrooms are old with little to no technology. They built a fence around the school because it is in a very bad area and sold me on a 24 hour guard. What they dont tell you is that guard is actually for bishop moore and not SCBCS. Recently my son got sick after school in a sport and called us from the office. By the time we arrived at the school he was waiting outside BY HIMSELF, at his age, that would be criminal. BEWARE OF THIS FRAUD

We are Extremely please with St. Charles Borromeo and I would highly recommend the school to those who are searching for a great education which will launch your student into high school and life success.If you are not familiar with St. Charles it is located on what I describe as three school campuses in one. The campuses are made up of Bishop Moore High School, Morning Star which is blessed with special need students which has their own classroom settings and staff, and St. Charles Borromeo with classes from pre-school through 8th grade. The three campus’ environment exposes the students to a unique learning and life experience.The three campuses are spiritually guided by Father Ralph the Church Pastor and Father Hector. Father Hector who is into Star Wars relates great with the students around the campus and during Church services. My opinion of Fr. Ralph is that he is a visionary with progressive plans for all the campuses. He has brought in Mr. Nadeau as the principal. Mr. Nadeau is proving he wants to continue to progress the schools standards of education along with improving physical settings of the school. Mr. Nadeau provides a venue for parents to post questions and ideas through his Coffee with the Principal events. No, not all ideas are implemented but he does explain some of the obstacles or policies that may hinder their adoptions.Mr. Nadeau’s energy and enthusiasm is contagious and is shared by his office and educational staff. You can find them and their families at night and weekend functions at the school or wherever the school participations take place. We love the creativity they use to engage the students in their studies and hands on activities.Safety is very important to us. The school staff is in the parking lot controlling and monitoring the traffic flow in the morning and at dismissal.If anyone does not believe this is a challenge, I suggest they volunteer for parking lot duty. Also on the three campuses are security officers to insure the safety of the students and staff.To get a true feeling of St. Charles schedule a visit and take a tour. Check out the activity schedule for the Church and the school and observe the interactions of the students, families, and parishioners. This is a great school with great students, parents, and staff.
