Our Lady of Perpetual Help School

This school is great and I thank this school for educating my friends and I. We have gone through a lot at this school but the lady that complained about nurse Beth needs to chill out. Why is she complaining about her daughters acne. I've had acne and I need to say is find a good prescription and quit complaining about the school 😂👌

My son has been going here for a year in pre-k. The staff is friendly, the school is awesome, and they do a great job teaching my little one.

This School for the main part is extremely helpful. They helped us with tuition, they helped us with Christmas, they donated uniforms, and someone put lunch money in my daughters account. I have continued harassment from their nurse Beth though. They have had a huge problem with strep throat the entire year. Every week Ive been sent home a notice about how more 3rd graders have strep throat. I inconsistently get emails from the nurse when my child visits (I like getting the emails, I wish I got them every time. She seems to pick and choose though.) My daughter has allergies, and tonsil stones, and has already started getting acne (Ive already taken her to a dermatologist in our previous state Indiana, about a year ago now, they said its acne.) I have tried to explain to her what tonsil stones are, and she rudely interrupted me & said they my daughter cant come back to school without a doctors note. So I had to go for an unneeded doctors appointment to get my daughter back into school. They said that she has tonsil stones, still no cure for those & allergies. They did recommend an over the counter allergy medicine. spent $180 to be told my daughter was healthy enough to be in school, and dint need to go to the doctor. When I returned the doctors note Nurse Beth called me, and said the doctors note didnt have enough information on it. That it only said she was OK to be in school, but Nurse Beth needed more details about tonsil stones & proof that the doctor checked them out. (Uhmm, hear of google? Also, yes the doctor did their job, and made sure my child was healthy enough for school. Included the normal ear, nose, mouth check.) She wanted to know what the doctor said about those things. I told her that they said theres no cure, theyre tonsil stones, the same thing I already tried to talk to you about, when you basically said my information wasnt good enough because Im not a doctor when you interrupted me and said she cant come back to school till a doctor looks at them. (Though I got all the information from a doctor years ago.) I get emails about how Sydneys stomach hurts, and shes red after gym class (its gym class, have her drink some water, eventually she will learn not to go so ham.) She sent CPS to my house, they asked about the tonsil stones, allergies, her acne, inspected my house. They looked at my application waiting to be approved for medicaid, saw that she has face cleaning soap & cleared us. However, I just received an email threatening CPS if "I dont work with them" because my daughter has a loose tooth (that she did show to me last night and this morning), and its a little inflamed and it hurts (shes probably been playing with it and aggressively wiggling it.) She also picks at the acne on her forehead. We have tried putting bandaids over it, and shes even been sent to school with bandaids on her forehead. I have gotten on to her for a long time in her habit of picking at her pimples and to not do it. This was also complained about in the email threatening CPS "for neglect" because the nurse said they were becoming infected. (they were normal pimple when she left the house this morning, they are pimples so there is puss.) Sydney also has extreme dry scalp, and she uses head and shoulders, has been for years. She picks at her dry scalp the same way she picks at her pimples and other scabs. She continues to re open this scab at the top her head in her hair reopening, not sure how to really help with that. I started making her wash her hair more to help with the dry scalp, but I cant cover the scab with a bandaid. The email threatening CPS for neglect even mentions how Sydney is picking these scabs. This is a habit I am working on with my child on breaking. This habit of hers is not a sign on neglect. My child will get in my car after school and tell me how she went to see the nurse, and the nurse thinks I should do a better a job at something, and the nurse said she can wrap her allergy pill in cheese to swallow it, and how I need to help her with her pill more, I dont get emails on those days.

Second church I've tried since moving to SA. The Mass was very full, and I really enjoyed Father Eric. Just didn't seem like 'THE' fit for me though. There were ribbon dancers at the beginning and ending of the service, which could have been a special occasion thing, but it just didn't appeal to me. On to the next!

Great church community and school! Best Catholic school in the areas surrounding and including San Antonio. New principal starting 2016 school year. Touted as best high school prep by surveys of area Catholic High Schools.
