School Reviews

We have two children attending the lower school (pre k 3 and first grade) and could not be happier with our precious school. The teachers and administration go above and beyond for our children. St. Andrews is more than a school it is truly a community. We feel it takes a village to raise children and we are proud and blessed to be a part of this community. If you have a school-aged child, I highly recommend taking a tour of St. Andrews!!
