We thought you might be
interested in the comments of some of our students when they were asked
what they liked best about St. Martin’s.
- 1st Grade:
- "It is my favorite school.
It has more places to play and it has nicer teachers."
- 2nd Grade:
- "It has nice after school
programs."
"I like Field Day."
- 3rd Grade:
- "I like my teacher, she is
so nice about things. She always cheers me up if I am sad."
"We have cool field trips."
- 4th Grade:
- "Our hot lunch is the best!"
"I love St. Martin’s school because of the field trips and
performing arts! A person came from a place and brought some really
cool bugs!"
- 5th Grade:
- "The things I like best
about St. Martin’s are Santa’s Secret Shop, the Friendship
Breakfast and reading to 1st Grade."
"I like the teachers probably the best. St. Martin’s has a
wonderful sense of security. This school has a very positive
curriculum."
- 6th Grade:
- "I like all the field trips
that we go on. I’m glad we are going to Catalina. I also like the
fun art projects."
"I like that the 6th Grade is going to Catalina. I
also like that we had two students visit us from Guatemala."
"I like many things about St. Martins, but here are just two. I
like the small class sizes, so that you can learn more, and I also
like the nurturing atmosphere."
"The teachers at St. Martin’s are very supportive. They are
there to help at any time. I’m glad they’re my teachers."
- Graduate (Class of ’89):
- "I am continuously grateful
that my parents chose St. Martin’s for my elementary education.
There I was guided by nurturing teachers, allowed to grow spiritually,
and given the privilege to interact with an intelligent and diverse
group of students. St. Martin’s gave me the excellent academic and
social background to excel in junior high and high school. Now as an
honors student at the University of Denver, working toward a dual
degree, I look back on my six years at St. Martin’s as the crucial
foundation for my academic success."
- Graduate (Class of ’87):
- "My experiences at St.
Martin’s are some of my favorites. I have only good memories of my
friends and teachers and I remember so much of what I learned there. I
always think fondly of my years at the school, and I enjoy going back
and visiting my old classrooms, and the teachers that I had. I hope
when I have children, I can find a school similar to St. Martin’s
for them to attend."
- Graduate (Class of ’86):
- "St. Martin’s is not only
a school of great academics, but also a school with nurturing, caring
teachers. I feel St. Martin’s helped prepare me, not only for junior
high and high school, but for life. They reinforce good qualities and
morals in their students. My experience at St. Martin’s was
wonderful and full of fond memories. When speaking of the school, I do
so with pride and honor."
- Graduate (Class of ’70):
- "Over thirty-five years after first
attending St. Martin's, I'm still in touch with some of my classmates.
Several of my former teachers remained in contact for the rest of
their lives. St. Martin's has proven to be more than a school. It's a
community we've carried with us into adulthood."
