Canisius has a brotherhood quality that you do not see at other schools, and along with having excellent academics, the school has retreat and service programs that really help each individual discover himself. One thing that I would change would be to lower tuition because that would allow more people to attend which would increase selectivity and improve academic competitiveness.
Our son is a recent graduate of Canisius High School. His experience was extremely positive. We considered the academics to be rigorous, but our son remained enthusiastic about school throughout his four years. Most pleasing of all to us, was his self development and awareness of taking care of others in his his family, school, and community. We feel our son received a very well rounded education at Canisius and is well prepared for success in college and beyond.
A school that encourages independence and accountability. Students are well rounded and consistently strive to support each other. Bad representation of the school through bad behavior comes with a cost that many times includes being asked to leave permanently. This includes behavior outside of school / parties/athletic events/drinking / fighting and more. Also ..”dress down “ days are few and far between ( not true for many private schools). ..and the uniform consists of dress shirt and pants with belt , tie and appropriate footwear. My son is a Junior and I am happy with the education he is receiving and know he will not struggle in the least at the college level.
