Brother Rice High School Reviews

If your child is intellectually and/or physically mature at a young age as well as interested in Catholicism then the school may be appropriate. However if any of these things don't describe your child, I would choose another school. I graduated from the school in the 80s and at that time it was very conservative, not very welcoming to non-athletes, and did not provide much of a religious education. I found the curriculum very dogmatic and they did not have many outlets for students with any form of creativity. There seem to be two sets of rules, one for athletes and one set of rules for non-stars. And strangely enough teachers even smoked cigarettes in the classrooms! My recommendation would be to visit several schools and even shadow students during daily and afterschool activities to make sure this is the right fit. I would not send my children to the school.

The academics here are pretty good. There are some very challenging classes and others not so much, but you will find that at any school. The teachers are always willing to help you as well as the tutors in the Achieve Plus Center. As for clubs and sports there is a wide array of these available to the students. If there isn't one you would like to be a part of then create it! The administration would be glad to help. This school is great all-around but the sense of community really stands out. The teachers and students are always looking out for each other which makes the high school experience easier. The brotherhood at this school is so prevalent and taught me to recognize the importance of working for something greater than myself.
Brother Rice is an excellent college preparatory high school which helps young men to develop a winning attitude as they approach the obstacles and adversity which life inevitably offers. The leaders of the school make it their mission to prepare its students holistically; in the classroom, on the athletic field, and in their spiritual lives as well. I am most proud to have graduated from Brother Rice and to have been a part of their tradition of excellence.
