My experience with McQuaid was great. I wouldn't say because of the school itself but because of the people and the relationships you make. Majority of the teaches are excellent and are free to help you with any questions you may have a bout 90 percent of the time. The students are just as great as the teachers. The food is excellent compared to other high schools, even a lot of the colleges I have visited did not compare when it came down to the food at McQuaid. The education is difficult to keep up with for some, but it pays off. It teahces you great work ethics as well as a great work attitude.
so far, my experience at McQ has been one of the most memorable high school experiences I could ever ask for. we are a school that is deep rooted in faith and the Jesuit values. we are all brothers, almost everyone knows everyone no matter what grade you are in or who you are. If you ask anyone at McQ what they would do for one of their brothers, it would be an emphatic "anything." I can't even put into words how lucky and thankful to God I am that I was able to attend McQuaid Jesuit for high school. on top of being inclusive and open to all it gets you ready for life and teaches you how to be a respectful young man. Our school spirit in unmatched at any sports event. We might have the smallest section, but we are always the loudest and proudest in the stands. No matter where we go or what we do McQuaid Jesuit students are held at a higher standard and looked at to set a good example. A Mcquaid man is intellectually competent, loving, religious, open to growth and committed to justice
