I personally thank you for taking the time to scan our web page. As you browse through our site, I hope that you take the time to scan our brochure to read about the many benefits available for your children in a small school. As you read through the brochure and the many links we have, keep in mind that all of the research conducted by the government and many independent agencies all agree that a small school setting is far more beneficial to students than any other.
Here at St. Clement we pride ourselves on being able to integrate classes to work on similar projects, provide peer tutors and helpers for those students that just need a little assistance and encouragement, and the fact that all of our teachers and older students know the names of, and look out for those that are younger. If you cannot picture seventh and eighth graders playing four-square and basketball and kick-ball at recess and taking the time to teach the younger ones the rules, stop by our playground any day between 12:25 and 12:50. We are one big family and the older students look upon the younger ones as little brothers and sisters.
Our testing scores are second to none. On the Youngstown Diocesan Report Card, St. Clement scored from fifteen to twenty nine points above the Diocesan Average in every grade, including kindergarten. Since then, we have added new Reading and Spelling for grades Kindergarten to Six, Phonics for grades Kindergarten to Two, and Writing and Grammar handbooks for grades Five to Eight.
One of the things we are very proud of is the fact that this year we have a second year of Spanish Instruction for every
class. We have also added Art, which is taught by a member of Canton Art Museum staff. Our students really look forward to those days. Computer instruction is given to every student in the school. We have third graders that have given power point presentations.
As is readily apparent, I am truly proud of St.Clement School, and if you wish to know more or are considering enrolling your child in a Catholic School, I would be very happy to talk to you any time. Please call me at 330-879- 2645 or e-mail me at pstahleker@clementschool.org. I hope that you enjoy our site.
