I rate it 5 stars since i've been in this school since kindergarten and loved how respectful the teachers and students have been to me these past few years! The teachers are remarkably good at teaching us students and have great activities that we can play. ( Some examples could be handbells, patrols, choir, etc. ) All of the students are always so kind and caring! (usually )LOVE ST. JOAN OF ARC SCHOOL!!

I love it some teachers are strict but I’m in grade four rn and most af the strict ones have a rlly rlly rlly fun side to them u gotta get to know them my fav teacher is Mrs.knights

its 5 stars the only reason the overalll rating is 3.6 is cause of people that complain about minecraft and fortnite day

Currently I'm in Grade 8, and it is a pretty nice school in general. Could be better if the School District trusted students more and some teachers were a bit more lenient with a few assignments and such. Religion classes teach you quite a bit about Roman Christianity I believe it is, but really doesn't do a lot for you in the long run since much of the information is forgotten. Some classes can be a bit boring depending on if you are interested in a topic or not. I've experienced it myself since I have almost fell asleep a few times in class. Teachers and staff are usually quite nice however, in terms of helping students with problems they're dealing with in life. CTF (Career and Technology Foundations) courses last from Grades 7-9 and can be quite engaging because of the activities, and of course, it does depend on whether you enjoy it or not. A few courses usually do last the whole year though (such as band). From my experience, school sort of got difficult around Grade 6-8, so these are the years where you really want to take school seriously to get good marks. Before Grade 6, you usually can relax a bit and take school easier. Just some tips: read lots of books (most of the time there is always something that will peak your interest, you just need take time to find the right one), study hard and don't hardly study, find a good study method that suits you (a study method could simply just looking at notes, writing down notes, flashcards, etc.) and that you think you could use to remember various things, and get into good habits when working on assignments; try not to get distracted or procrastinate on those tasks, some may be worth quite a bit of your grade. Choose good partners and be a good partner as well, no one likes a slacker and having to work all by themselves or with less people. Get good sleep, pay attention, and focus. All of those will be a great help in school.
