- **4/5** — Some positives, but room for improvement: While my child enjoys attending St Pius X, I feel that the school could do more to engage parents in the learning process and provide more support for students with special needs. The facilities are excellent, and I appreciate the emphasis on faith and community. With some tweaks, I believe this school has the potential to be truly outstanding. *(Dec 2021)*
