School Reviews
5 10/1/2019
I highly recommend this school. My son went to Blessed Sacrament when Dr. Hopewell was in charge of the school prior to combining with Huguenot Academy. He loved it!! It shaped his future and he has 3 boys of his own now. His boys would love to attend, but not sure they can afford to. The education far outpaces public school.
