Warring Magnet Academy is not the worst school in the Poughkeepsie City School District; however, it comes pretty darn close. There is a definite lack of guidance and learnership from the principal, Mr. James Foster. His lack of commitment to the children and to issues in education is apparent. With this in mind, I must admit that there are some benefits to the school. For example, the music department, headed by Mrs. Erica McCoy, is one of the best I have seen. Students are exposed to a wide range of musical selections and experiences and it's not just chorus. There is a recorder ensemble, guitar group, bell ensemble and Orff ensemble. Students also recieve quality education from dedicated instructors such as Mrs. Sieving, who are willing and vocal advocates for their students.

St. Peter's is certainly the right choice for us. The pastor, principal and faculty clearly care about their mission to educate as well as maintain discipline. Fr. Garisto (former educator), our pastor, and the principal, Ms. Roach, have made sure that the curriculum, especially the science and math programs, prepare the graduates very well for high school. Music, art, drama, sports and other extra curricular programs are also available. Through parish and school events, we have come to know many other parents and parishioners whom we can really call friends now. It is a community of people we love to be around. School families and other parishioners also gain knowledge of the wonderful history behind both the School and Our Lady of the Rosary Chapel by listening to our pastor at Mass. Our three children are benefiting from their St. Peter's experience, as they gain knowledge, friendships and faith.
