SJS is a wonderful, small school with a genuine sense of community. The school has families from 16 surrounding towns, which provides students with perspective beyond a single town or neighborhood. Yes it's a religion-based (Catholic) school, but to a comfortably degree. As a parent, I love that uniforms are mandatory - saves $ on wardrobe and morning negotiations on fashion choices. The tuition is very low, so the facilities can't compare to shiny high-tax dollar (high capacity) new schools, but the faculty and staff are caring and dedicated. My children would revolt if forced to leave. 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.
