This school is a huge waist of money! It has a great rep, because once a upon a time it was a good school. However, under the new leadership the quality of the school has declined. The teachers are not certified or qualified to run a classroom. Most of the teachers can not manage their classrooms. The communication is non-existent. Trying to contact the principal or any of the teachers is close to impossible. When you do get a response it is usually condescending and pompous. Science and History takes a back seat to Religion courses which are over emphasized. St. Francis De Sales has turned into the typical Philadelphia Catholic School; all issues are swept under the rug. The parish is money hungry. Mostly importantly, there isn?t any diversity in the staff. The school is majority African American, yet there is only one African American teacher. Nepotism overrides diversity.
Cons: unprofessional and rude
