When the pandemic hit nationwide st, Isidore ensured all the correct precautions were taken and opened its doors to our students. Every year since then they have exceeded to help and guide the children in the most critical time of their lives. The staff, teachers, and helping parents are very willing to help and make sure the child as an individual is being heard as well as the parents. This school is the best investment my husband and I have made because we put our boys thru it.

We are very happy with this school, and more importantly, our child who is currently in TK is thriving. Watching her grow daily in knowledge, confidence, and faith has been a blessing. She is loved at St. Isidore, and in turn, her love for God, herself, and others shines. The focus on virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit is especially appreciated. The children spend time learning these as part of their daily curriculum and are specially recognized for living out these virtues on their own at school. For example, kindness, honesty, humility, and orderliness. It`s so important to me that my child is being taught critical morals and values - developing a strong foundation as a child of Christ, but also simply learning how to be a good person.

My son`s first year at St. Isidores has far exceeded our expectations. He is growing, thriving and so happy. St. Isidores does an amazing job caring for each student academically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. I appreciate the staff`s clear and consistent communication with weekly emails, class dojo, and text alerts. My husband and I feel well-informed about what`s going on in our child`s classroom and school-wide. As a public school educator in our local community, I experience challenges with safety, discipline, inconsistent/unclear communication, red tape, erosion of high standards in education, and top-down district directives that don`t always put the children first. Sending my child to a school that prioritizes virtues, academics, high standards, safety, and religion is invaluable to our family. We appreciate St. Isidores far beyond a 5-star review and can`t wait for our daughter to come on board in August in the TK class.
