It is an excellent institution with the potential for greatness!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2005-06-07 “All my children have attended or are attending this school. I think the school is great up to and including 6th grade, after that it seems the school doesn't know what to do with the 7th & 8th graders, not many, if any, class trips. They get a big turnaround in teachers for these 2 grades also. All in all, the school is pretty good and in a great, safe neighborhood.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-01-25 “I am so happy my husband and I chose St. Margaret. It is a superb school. Because of the wonderful teachers, my son received full scholarships to Regis, Iona, and Xavier. He was also asked to take the scholarship exam for Fordham Prep., which he declined due to the other scholarships. St. Margaret creates a well-rounded student by offering extracurricular activities such as band, basketball, and soccer. Parental involvement is greatly encouraged.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2003-08-27 “My son is happy there and has had exceptiona teachers thus far...he is entering 4th grade this year”
