"Overview St. Cecilia is a very unsatisfactory school. Recently, there have been many students leaving the school because of its problems. SCS is not worth sending your children there. Your kids will not have an enjoyable experience at SCS. Parents should not take the risk enrolling your children in this school. Student Quality The students at St. Cecilia do whatever they want, and the school will let serious problems involving students escalate. Student behavior at St. Cecilia is unacceptable. The students have no concern on how they treat others in the school. Children will be excluded by their classmates and will be very unhappy here. Administration and Staff The principal is never involved in the school community and is always in her office. There is no involvement with the principal and students. The administration never keeps the teachers informed on problems within the school. Some teachers are nice, but others will give your children many problems. Curriculum The curriculum is not demanding, and you can find much better education at other Catholic private schools within the Archdiocese. You will not prepare your children for high school by sending them to St. Cecilia."

"I am a graduate of St. Cecilia and am now in high school. St. Cecilia has always been such a negative enviroment for me. The teachers do not want to help you, and it seems like they only want to bring you down. No encouragement coming from them. As you hit middle school they still treat you like you are in kindergarten and have you put up the quite sign when the lights are out- and if we don't obey we have a citation. I am at Memorial High School now and enjoy it VERY very much! The teachers there do encourage you and actually want to help. The kids are very inviting and friendly as well. And the classes are actually smaller than my classes at SCS. If your child does not like SCS or is having troubles I would really consider to pull him out and try public school with him. St Cecilia School was nothing but a negative enviroment for me."

"St. Cecilia, as of 2008, has a new principal, who is bringing about great change, i.e. differentiated intstruction, new more qualified teachers, and an academic dean. No school is perfect, as it is full of humans, but, at least, the principal is listening. It offers a variety of special classes, starting as early as pre-k 3, such as music, art, computer, Spanish and religion. Now with 600 students, 20 per classroom, the school is coming into its own."

"This is our third year at SCS and lots of changes (for the better!) have occurred since we began. I personally am very happy with the spiritual, emotional and educational growth of our child that we have seen- I have found the teachers to be very receptive and open minded to my concerns, but have always had the same respect for them. BRAVO for giving our children such a remarkable elementary education!"
