I decided to send my daughter to St. Barbara's because she needed smaller class sizes and more challenging opportunities. It was the best decision I have made. She loves to read and enjoys their new and updated library. The school is clean and well taken care of. The teachers are great and care about each of their students. I'm excited for her to continue on to Central Catholic in a few years.
