  • This school was a waste of time. Their teachers were rude, and the administration was disrespectful towards parents with concerns. All and all this school is garbage.

  • the person who gave this school an "f" is wrong. They probably never went to this school or sent anyone their. It is an excellent school. The teachers are caring and its a nice small community where everyone knows you. I received an excellent education from St. Leo's and it will last a lifetime.

  • Caring, devoted faculty, with a feeling of fellowship. Your child will get out of St. Leo's what they put in, and then some. Be ready to be challenged, nurtured, and asked to excel.

  • This school has very disrespectful teachers, and has a very unsatisfactory curriculum. The teachers, especially in the higher grades, yell in class regularly scaring the kids. The teachers don't teach, they ridicule the students and lower their self esteems. DON'T SEND YOUR CHILDREN THERE!
