Bishop Watterson High School Reviews
Rating 3.9 out of 5 126 reviews
I love the community! It is an amazing school with so much to offer! Although the school is small, it is mighty in spirit and worth the money. It has a great academic program and stellar athletic program. Only complaints: it is not very diverse, and there are many times I have felt prejudiced against as a Latina. They ask for a lot of money through dances, sports games, dress down days...etc...any chance they get.
I could not be more grateful to have attended Bishop Watterson. The school provided me with countless opportunities such as playing varsity basketball, serving on student council, and eventually serving as Student Body President. There is something for everyone at Bishop Watterson as we have excellent programs in all fields including music, theater, athletics and other various student organizations and clubs. Additionally, Watterson is a family. Students and Staff have great relationships that make attending school enriching and enjoyable. Everybody cares for each other and wants to see each other succeed.
I have thoroughly enjoyed my four years at Watterson. The students and faculty really make the place, which is already a welcoming Catholic atmosphere. The students are hardworking, friendly, and compassionate to one another, and the faculty members are understanding and really want their students to succeed. The academics, athletics, clubs, band/choir, and theater are all phenomenal and very accomplished.
