After years of searching I found St. Matthew's Church and was welcomed by its parishioners. It has a nice balance of classic worship and progressive ideals with a varied base. As I investigated the school I found a community truly rooted in the development of the whole child, academically, emotionally, and morally. My children have thrived their- developing into confident, articulate young adults that carry a quiet sense of moral and social purpose and a love of learning forward with them. It is a school without equal here, too bad more don't follow the mold.

“Too small, too small-minded”   J. Q. P.

We looked at St. Matts and West Hillsborough School, decided on WHS. SM was too restrictive and too small for normal child development. We are very happy with our choice. More >

This school is not as good as several other local schools. Although they do a good job teaching children to be good people of good character they do not do a good job of educating children. The school is very small so they have very few extracurricular activities like sports, art, theater. We know two families that chose Saint Mats. One family already withdrew one of their sons who went there. The other family is planning to switch to Crystal Springs when their kid gets to middle school age.

My friend went to this school as a kid and speaks highly of it. I walk by it every day. They are located in a building right behind the church, and their recess is held in the beauty of the church yard where they can run and play to heart's content. They have their own basketball court that is totally fenced in, and there is also a day care center for the younger kids. The kids here all wear uniforms, which can be a blessing the way some pre-teens dress these days.
