Lacks funding in the right principals, and students tend to be on the cocky side. Not a good environment with very little positives.

They had 2 spots for my children, who are overly qualified. I inquired about financial aid, and now there are no spots for my children. Ask yourself before you apply here, do you want your children to attend a school where parents buy their way in, where they mass produce snowflakes who can't solve problems for themselves? Very low standardized test scores also.

St. Andrew's is an investment in your child's future. While it is not a fit for everyone, it is proving to be an amazing school for our middle child. The staff is well educated, dedicated, and passionate about their affect on the youth they work with. The class sizes are small. The theater program is unlike any other group in the city, possibly the state. They have near broadway level performances that include a fourth (possibly a third) of the student body. The principles that guide the school include elements of social justice, community services, and environmental stewardship. There

We have had a great experience with St. Andrews. Challenging and organized, they want their students to succeed. The teachers are supportive and dedicated. Highly recommend.

I shadowed there once and its not that amazing. It was okay but nothing really special. The kids are kind of mean and crude, and quite frankly, they scared me. The teacher struggle to get control over the students and she had to scream multiple times along with pulling several people out of class to talk to them about their behavior. In sports, the athletes are also not very friendly.
