"It is a good place to learn and the new pastor is doing a wonderful job. He put the kids first and it makes them want to go to school. My child loves it. Thanks"

"I have 2 children attending St. Frances and I am very happy. There is structure along with a great teachers. I don't think our strongest concerns should be gym teachers and after school clubs, if you want that go to the ymca. Our main concern should be in the education area and i am happy to say that my children excel in that area and it has alot to do with the teaching staff, but it does help if parents do their part at home. There are always a select group of parents that just need to complain about something and i'm sure this happens in all schools, however, I feel if you're not happy then leave! but they don't seem to leave and if they do its for financial reasons, not due to the education. Give St. Frances a shot, you won't regret it!!!!"

"My child has received an excellent education at St Frances de Chantal and continues to score above grade level on the ITBS tests. The teachers are dedicated and work very hard. Whenever there has been a question, the teachers have always responded. It's unfortunate that some parents complain about minor issues. Please realize that the majority of the parents are happy with St Frances de Chantal. This year the school has new clubs and a play is scheduled for the spring. Credit for this goes to the principal. When my child finally graduates and goes to high school, I know my child will be prepared."

"This school has turned out to be a great disappointment. At this point there is no gym teacher, no computers, and children in the fourth grade could barely put a sentence together. If this school does not shape up it will not be open for long. Many parents are talking about pulling their children out after this semester is over. One more thing some of the teachers should not be teaching children. they are rude and obnoxious. Children should not be afraid of their teachers."

"St. Frances de Chantal is a wonderful school where parents can know that their children will get a top notch education in a safe, nuturing environment. The values-infused curriculum in very good and kids are well prepared for high school. Excellence is the mission of the school and they certainly strive to help each child to reach their potential. There are a lot of enrichment activities. The teachers in each grade are really fantastic and devoted to the kids. You truly get a feeling of family at the school from the principal right on to the receptionist. Many families are have second and third generation students at SFdC...because it is a great school. I highly recommend it."
