My first grader, Sophia, is a Seton student for her 2nd year. Being a parent who has raised two older daughters in public school, I can honestly say "If I only knew then...". I could tell right away, that this school has a superb curriculum, exemplary staff, and the wholesome and loving environment any parent would be proud to send their child to! There are many educational (and fun!) activities and events for the school day and family night events too. Seton is more than just a school. It's your child's home away from home!
Endorse Seton Catholic Elementary School. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
