Epiphany School

From my daughter– a student at Epiphany
«The teachers are nice and the homework is fun. My favorite subject is science because the teacher is very specific with his directions and the science he presents is awesome. I like the school because it is easy to pick your clothes in the morning because we all have the same uniform. «
As parents we find it to be a very welcoming environment. Parents seem to sense when you are really busy or under stress and offer to help with pickups or drop-​offs. We also like that the grades are mixed during playtime and they utilize the older kids to mentor the little ones.

We are new parents/​students to Epiphany, having come from a very diverse public school. It’s been an easy transition for our child. My child loves going to school, wants to be the first student into the classroom every day. He is an eager learner who has not been lost in the shuffle. The school is especially strong at study skills, reading, writing, social studies and language arts. Latin is a great base for learning other languages. The one weakness might be math. I can’t comment on above issues, other than to say a heartfelt sorry. We’ve been in situation where we were the minority and appreciated a warm welcome. Maybe give it another try or visit?

I read Lisa LL’s review and was aghast at her allegation. I hate to call a stranger a liar and so I will just say that in my 10 years of being a parent with children at this school I have never heard anyone, i.e., teacher, staff, aide, student, parent of student, etc., suggest that «black kids» or kids of any color other than white are not entirely welcome at Epiphany. Nor have I ever heard St. Therese described in the manner she alleges. Check out the Epiphany website, playground at recess or any of the community events if you want to see the «true colors» of Epiphany. Or talk to any Epiphany family (of any color) about the commitment to diversity. What an irresponsible and inaccurate slam on a fine school.
