I am considering these three schools for Kindergarten for my daughter: St.Raphaels, St .Elizabeths, and the Woods Academy.
We have visited each school and they are all very different! We have applied to all 3. As a background...My husband and I both attended Catholic school k-8 ( DH in MD and me here in MD) and I attended Good Counsel. He is Catholic and I am another Christian faith. As I wait for decisions on applications to come out I am looking for any opinions, comments, experiences at these three. What is the vibes at these 3 schools? Are you happy at the school you chose? Are families welcoming? How rigorous are the academics? |

| The Woods is so conservative, it makes St. Raphael look like St. Elizabeth. |

| Kids I know from St. Elizabeth's who are in high school / college right now - got accepted to where they wanted to go and doing very well. |

Has to be a joke bc Woods is the least conservative of the 3 schools. It’s not a parochial school and only has mass for holy days and religion only taught twice a week compared to the parochial schools. |

| I would agree Woods is more different from the other two. K at Woods is the last year of Montessori so 30 mixed age kids per classroom. St. Raphael and St. E’s each has about 25 kids/ class. |

| All 3 of those schools are great and I know several families st each school. I personally loved Woods Academy when we were looking for 3rd grade admissions. We ultimately chose a different school that was a 3rd -12th just so we didn’t have to do the admissions process all over in 8th grade. |
