Bourgade Catholic High School Reviews

My experience at Bourgade Catholic High School was unforgettable. And that is what all students strive for, right? There were times where I hated being there and times where I could not imagine ever leaving. The academic level is above average, but the teachers/teaching methods are a little rusty and could use some work. Bourgade incorporates many tactics and enforces rules that prepare you for college, such as: a school-wide late work policy, strict office hours, fines, etc. There are plentiful student resources such as: Chromebooks distributed for all students, a library open throughout the day, office hours, intervention scheduling, and so much more. The community is very small and it fells like home. You get to know everyone around you.

Bourgade is a great college prep for students. The teachers at this school actually care for every individual person at this school, they will help you no matter what, and have your back if you are in a tough situation. The academics at this school is outstanding, about 98% of the students that graduate there go to college. They have great AP courses, and honors classes for students. They also have great sports programs, and some have been in championships before, like basketball, and the soccer team.
The small, close-knit community is what makes Bourgade Catholic stand out. Rather than being another face that passes through the school, I am valued and recognized for my individuality and personal strengths. I have been given the chance the thrive academically, athletically, and in leadership. Academically, I have involved myself in AP and honors classes, and also choosing electives that personally benefit me. My classes are smaller, and have a more personal learning experience. Athletically, I'm able to thrive and be coached one-on-one. I've gotten the chance to go to state finals, as well as try new sports and still succeed in them. Lastly, my leadership skills are what have grown the most. I started as a nervous freshman lucky to be voted the Freshman Class Treasurer, to becoming Student Body President. These opportunities have made my high school experience outstanding, and I recommend Bourgade Catholic to anyone who wants their voice to be heard and valued in high school.
