Open Quote My family and I recently move to CT from NYC . As we were searching for schools , we came across St. Andrew. Both the Principal and the school Secretary made the transition so easy. We were provided with a packet that had everything we needed to get our son enrolled for school . We were still in NY while handling enrollment and if we had any questions communication was accessible. The school curriculum is one of the best . My son learned Spanish at the age of 4. The class sizes are very small, therefore the teachers are able to give the students more attention as well as determining their educational needs .

Every week parents will receive a weekly email with important information regarding school updates. Communication is the key and the communication has been amazing. The plan is for our son to remain in this school until it’s time to graduate from the 8th grade . My family and I are proud to be apart of the St. Andrew Family . Close Quote

Open Quote My son attends St Andrews since kindergarten and we couldn't be happier. The teachers, the principal and office staff are always very helpful and nice. I know that my son is safe and learning everyday the skills he needs to be successful. Even during COVID times the school pulled together in such an amazing way that I couldn't be more proud to be part of this beautiful family. I absolutely recommend St Andrew Academy 100.

Open Quote My three children went to St. Andrew until we moved. They are in their twenties now and I still hear wonderful memories they had at St Andrew. I feel they gave my children a great educational and strong faith foundation that will help them through life. I am so happy we choose St Andrew and the money was worth it. Close Quote

Open Quote St. Andrew Academy of Bridgeport is a great school. My son started 1st grade there and he is a 4th grader now and it is because of their standard and effort that was displayed over the years that I decided to enroll my daughter as well. St Andrew Academy provides a Christian based foundation along with a great academic curriculum. They encourage and nurture students while preparing them to be leaders and to succeed in life. The students are taught Catholic values and it is also culturally diverse. The Principal and staff lead by example and are exceptionally friendly and maintain excellent communication with parents. They also provide before and after school programs which is immensely helpful to us as parents. The St. Andrew Academy school community is one of the best there is, and I am proud to be a part of it. I certainly recommend this school for any family who can appreciate excellence on every level from a school, you will not be disappointed. Close Quote

Open Quote St Andrew Academy is the best kept secret in Bridgeport! A rigorous curriculum that encourages critical thinking envelopes the academics in all grades!

Moreover, the small class sizes allows teachers to truly learn the learning styles of each student and as a result, the majority of students in most of the grades are reading at or above grade level and are performing at or above grade level in math. If a student is struggling in any area, the teachers are readily available for extra help to ensure academic achievement.

As a parent, city resident, and a fellow educator with over 15 years of teaching experience, I fully recommend St Andrew Academy of Bridgeport! Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
