    "DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN TO ST.MARTHA'S. THEY ARE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT FNDRAISING THEN THE CHILDREN. THE PRINCIPAL MRS.DONOFRY IS THE WORT PRINCIPAL . I KNOW THEY ARE AT LEAST 2 LAWSUITS THAT ARE OCCURING AGAINST HER. THE SCHOOL ACTUALLY LEFT CHILDREN IN THE CLASSROOMS BECAUSE THEIR PARENTS HAD NO MONEY TO PARTICIPATE IN A FUNDRAISER WHILE THE ENTIRE SCHOOL WAS OUTSIDE WITHA PICNIC PARTY. I HAVE PULLED MY CHILDREN OUT . PLEASE TAKE MY ADVICE AND THINK TWICE. THE PASTOR, FATHER AL DURING SUNDAY MASS PREACHES HOW MUCH THE SCHOOL NEEDS MONEY RAISED INSTEAD OF TEACHING THE GOSPEL. THIS SCHOOL IS AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE."

    "I have two children that attend St. Martha's School and I am 100% satisfied with school. Parents chose a Catholic school for the religious instruction, the discipline and the environment. In every regard, St. Martha's School accomplishes all that and more. Parents are active in the school and the children enjoy their teachers and classmates. My children arrive home from school every day with great stories about what they learned and what they did with their friends. I had a choice between a private Catholic elementary school in this area and St. Martha's School. I made the right decision. A Catholic school will teach your child how to become a good person and that will stay with them for the rest of their life. Isn't that the most important life lesson of all?"

    "I have two children who currently attend St. Martha School and I believe they are receiving an excellent education in a very safe, disciplined and caring environment. The principal, Mrs. Donofry, is extremely hands-on when it comes to the students. She greets each child every day as they enter the school (many times with hugs for the little ones) and she's always outside during dismissal making sure everyone is safely inside their cars before anyone can exit the parking lot. She and the teaching staff are readily available to answer questions or meet with parents, when asked to do so. I feel the students get a lot of individual attention from the faculty and staff. In addition to a great academic curriculum, the teachers also emphasize the importance of self-discipline and respect for others. My children love St. Martha's and enjoy going to school every day."

    "I went to this school for two years. It was good but had its downsides. The principal was too concerned with uniforms. I was having problems with losing a parent and one day I was crying as I went to the nurse and she was rude and all she cared about was the blue shirt under my school shirt but I got help from other adults at school. I did have problems with one teacher at school but all my other teachers were wonderful, caring and helpful. I am blessed I had people around me that cared during my time at the school."
