My daughter has been at the school for 3 years now and she loves it. The academics are great and most teachers are wonderful. There has been high teacher turnover and wish they had more extra-curricular activities. Parental involvement could be better. There seems to be a small group of parents who volunteer a lot and many parents who just do the minimum (or nothing).

We have always had baseball since we been there (8 years). As far as parental involvement - it varies by the grade and the parents. I know many families that donate hundreds of hours to this school a year and I know families that do their contract requirements. (There is a contract for volunteer hours you have to sign every year.) The school is more about the academic performance, but it does have music, art and sports programs. I would agree they could use help in the area of math preparation and turnover of staff,but that is a concern with most of the Catholic Schools in the area.

My Daughter has been enrolled in All Souls since Kindergarten. THe school's goals are focused more on academics then extra curricular activites. My daughter loves the school. I think it is okay.

Extracurricular activities have been decreasing. This school no longer offers baseball/softball; and many students do not participate in after school programs, making them be removed even faster. Parental support is very minimal. There is not much support required of the parents, and they do not seem to volunteer it either. Academic programs are average, but mathematics is something that many students struggle with when they graduate or leave that school, because they were not well prepared. There is also a large turnaround for many of the teachers, meaning that they do not stay for very long - with the current exception of three.
