Select all of the cells of the table and then assign the "Keep with next"
paragraph attribute.  Unless the table is longer than the length of a 
page, it should fit.  The bad news, Word may need to leave alot of white 
space at the end of the previous page in order to keep the cells together.
if this really bothers you, before you print out the **final** copy, go back 
and shuffle paragraphs to make it look even (but that seems like alot of 
work just for 'ye old english class' :-)
