School Reviews

5  
We love St. Bart's. It has been a good fit for each of our children. The small classes and tailored instruction helped my son who was ahead AND my daughter who struggled with reading and language skills. Their teachers have done a lot of training and certifications. We love the preschool as well (it feels like a home away from home). Highly recommend.
