[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Current St. Peter Parent here. Don't assume a MS slot will be available at St. Peter. While it's true families used to bail in middle school for places like St. Anslem, that trend is changing fast. The school is at 97-98% capacity now including MS. The previous principal also away from bringing in kids during middle school who had not been at SPS previously so as not to disrupt classroom continuity. Not sure how the new principal will handle that if there are openings, but the current trend of people staying through 8th may make it a moot point. Among the many reasons we went to SPS, the guarantee of a good Middle School was at the top of the list, as painful as it is to shell out the cash in the early years. [/quote] We are at a smaller catholic in Brookland that goes from PK3 - 8th grade (St. Anthony's Catholic School and so far we love it). It's a school that many Hill parents don't have on their radar but also sends many kids to St. Anslem's for high school (along with various other catholic high schools). It's similar in size to CHDS at around 220 kids for the entire school. Similar to St. Peter's however, I don't know how many spaces open up in middle school but it's something you can inquire about. Open houses start in February. [/quote]
