St. Gregory College Preparatory Reviews

If you have been looking for a great middle school, look no farther! Tucson really lacks in this area and is fortunate to have St. Gregory. Students have many opportunities for learning. The faculty is great. The school prepares well for high school.

I am commenting on the Upper School. Our children started at St. Gregory during their freshman years. We wanted them in a good school that was safe. Words can not describe how wonderful we think this school is. The headmaster is one of the finest human beings you will ever meet. Susan Heintz, the upper school head, is the most 'with it' person I know. The faculty members are incredible teachers as well as wonderful human beings.There has been very little turnover and both of our kids have had the same solid core of teachers. We are not wealthy but our kids have been treated just like anyone else. We have never regretted the money we have spent on this school. It has been worth every cent.

The Great teachers never seem to stay more than 1 yr. Head of middle shool has changed a couple of times in 2 yrs. Their commitment to Character is not true. This school used to be known for it's academics and integrity, now it's all about the kids whose parents donate the most.

This is a review for the Middle School. Our child was at St. Greg for the 3 yr. Middle School Program. Something is very, very wrong at this school. High, high, high staff turnover, no leadership. Every leader has left, most teachers (in the middle school) have left in the three years our child attended there. Very high pricetag for the 'quality' of teachers.

I echo the words of praise for St. Gregory. The faculty is a collection of some of the finest educators in the teaching profession. They are truly caring human beings. There was never a doubt that my child would be safe and supported at SG and now that he is excelling in college, I know we made the right decision. It really is a college preparatory school.

St. Gregory Middle School is definiatly the best middle school in the city. I tried sending my kid to Orange Grove Middle School, and found St. Gregory was way ahead in everything. Even though at St. Gregory middle school you might find your child struggling because of the tough curricular, then ends benefits will highly pay off. The middle school prepares their student to be very succussful at almost any public highschool. If you have the money and value education, then send your child to St. Gregory.

My daughter is a 6th grader and loves St. Gregory. The teachers are wonderful and are always willing to help the children reach their maximum potential. The school has a wonderful curriculum and great environment for this age. The schedule and small class sizes are fabulous.

This is a great school, and worth the $15,000 a year. It has such a friendly atmosphere, and with such few students, everyone pretty much knows each other and there is a sense of community. With small class sizes, the teachers (which are fabolous) make sure everyone understands what he/she is teaching. The students have half of their classes one day, and the other half the next, just like college schedules. They also have tutorial during the last 30 mins of lunch which allows students to go get help from teachers if they need it. St. Gregory is also very safe unlike other schools such as Sabino or Tucson. The only bad thing about this school is that they do not have football or cheerleading. But this school does a great job in getting kids ready for college.
