I am a proud Palllotti parent. This school has caring teachers that want to help your child excel. It has so many opportunities for your child to get involved. It is a great place.

If you are white and your son is a football player do not come to this school. There is so much racism on and off the field that stems from the football coach. There are so many behavioral issues. Last year one kid choked out nine kids before he was forced to leave. The boys sexually harass the female teachers, use racial slurs towards Asian teachers, and just plain disrespectful. The teachers (when they are able to teach) are excellent. It's a shame that a handful of kids have to ruin it for others.

My son recently graduated from this school and my feelings are somewhat mixed. He attended another denominational private school from kindergarten to middle school and had an excellent sojourn. I wanted him to have a different experience and more exposure so when he picked Pallotti I was happy. His first year was a nightmare. After two months he begged me to take him back to the prior private school system. I didnt, because I realized that the issue was with the kids attending Pallotti and discipline, not the teachers or the contents of the curricula. I spoke to the student director and was able to convince him to stay. In my childs case, he wasnt around certain behaviors and I believed that he needed to know how to navigate difficult situations now rather than later. I also believed that the teachers at Pallotti are Good teachers and do their best. Covid came and changed everything, however, Pallotti and its administration and faculty handled teaching through the pandemic like champs. I was impressed. On returning to school, the atmosphere was different. I think the school has made conscious decisions to up their admittance procedure so that the quality of students now attending and behaviors have improved. Per my son, there are less behavioral issues and I can see the difference. I personally think my sons batch was the worse.
Overall, I believe Pallotti is a great school and if discipline is made a serious objective the school will see students do wonders.
I would definitely recommend this school.

Poor leadership and communication strategies on all levels. Their school fees border on the ridiculous. Great disappointment in classroom behavior - it is a huge sore thumb that a vast majority of students disrespect the teachers constantly and the teachers do little to stop this behavior. Inconsistent rules and regs, no consequences for those constantly breaking the rules. Physically, most of the school is falling apart-although the newer part is such as the gym. lunch room and main entrance offices are "newer"--the rest of the school is poorly maintained-bathroom sinks are from the 50s. Poor emphasis on academics it appears that only sports is king here. Colloquial student body and staff does not make a good learning environment for all students. They embrace all cultures and religions which is good thing, but rarely do you see students embrace each other's differences--very cliquey groups.

Pallotti is a really good school. Teachers are very nice, so are students. It creates a lot of opportunities for students. I STRONGLY recommend parents to send their kids to this school

Great school, but not so great choices in Leaders. It's unfortunate the school can not find a decent principal to run the school. Great faculty and campus ministry program!

Pallotti is a great school and investment! The use of technology is very helpful and would definitely recommend it to any interested family!!!!

Mr. Edmonds was great and the new President/Principal seems prepared to take Pallotti to the next level in every area. I have always loved the family I found at Pallotti and knew that my children were getting a great education, now I believe others will see our school in the same light. I have found that Pallotti is a great place for a teenager to grow into a responsible adult.
