"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!"

"It's a choice to go to SCS. We made the choice to go here b/c we respect the decisions on the parish and school. It is a fine school. Our children are not only getting a quality education, but the catholic teachings are the most important. SCS has a wonderful new principal who is impressing us all. If someone is not happy at any school, get involved and make changes, or move along and stop complaining. No school the bad karma of complaining parents. It doesn't help you, your child, or the school. There is a huge waiting list at SCS, so I know they are doing something right. The families there are lovely!"

"Our children just began St. Cecilia (correct spelling) this year, and we have been very pleased. It is located in a public school district with academically strong schools, but if you are looking for a Catholic education, a dynamic group of parents, and a school with lots of positive energy, this is a wonderful place. It is truly an integrated and supportive church/school community. Not everything as SCS is perfect, but it sure is doing a lot right. As far as the academics, the kids go on to Strake Jesuit, St. Agnes, Duchesne, and St. Thomas, some of the top schools in town. We had lots of choices in our school selection, but SCS is the perfect place if you are on the Catholic high school track and want your kids to have a great experience on the way."
