Holy Names Academy Reviews
Rating 4.21 out of 5 266 reviews
My experience with Holy Names Academy has overall been a positive one. I found that an all girl environment created a more secure and comfortable atmosphere to share my opinions, be more confident, and learn more about myself. Academics at HNA are competitive, but also very collaborative with many available resources to aid the students in their learning and school work, as well as very flexible teachers. The social environment is awesome, I found a great group of friends while also having many friends outside of that group. Athletics were also competitive and I learned to work well with others. One part of the experience that leans more to the negative side is that it's not a traditional high school experience. Since it's an all girls school, there isn't a football team and dances are also different because it's more difficult to find dates. Overall, HNA is a great school with admirable characteristics all around and I wouldn't pick any other school.
My daughter grew from a fourth grader wanting to attend Holy Names Academy because its building looked like Hogwarts, to a rising ninth grader wanting to attend for the all-girls academic excellence, to now a high school senior with a nuanced understanding of an all-girls high school experience. Her confidence and sense of self as a young woman has grown impressively. The faculty and staff transitioned to 100% online during the pandemic without skipping a beat, and bent over backwards to accommodate the students during the many months of online school. Our experience has been wonderful!
Overall it has been a very positive experience. I was able to connect with people right away, and make long lasting friends. As far as academics, Holy Names has challenged and pushed me to go farther than any other school. It has allowed me to struggle and succeed in many classes. My first year was challenging because it was mostly online, but the following years have been intellectually stimulating. If I could change anything, it would be the homework load. It has been a lot to finish in one night.
