St. John Bosco High School

• 95 reviews

Senior: Bosco is a top tier school; it has a variety of different programs to create a unique experience for every student. The Pathway system definitely prepares students for collegiate success, by giving them a headstart into their career aspirations. I found that, due to the strong emphasis on academics and sports, students shaped into well-rounded young men—ready to tackle any challenge thrown at them. The overall atmosphere of the school is one of brotherhood and cooperation, grounded in religious value. Every single day is filled with academic success coupled with athletic success. The duality of academics and athletics creates an environment of individuality within the greater unit. I would strongly recommend St. John Bosco to any prospective student!

Servite High School

• Private School
• Anaheim, CA
• 9-12
• 92 reviews

Parent: As a parent and staff member at Servite, I have been impressed with the quality of teachers, counselors, staff and coaches. I have 2 sons at Servite, and I can honestly say that Servite is the only place I'd want them to be. The faith formation program is great, and there are plenty of opportunities to find something that fits with your sons interests and personality- whether it is sports, leadership roles, clubs, or service projects. There really is something for everybody. The sense of community and brotherhood is very strong at Servite. Many Servite families are quick to volunteer and bond with each other over various events and activities, and I cherish the friendships I have made there. There are so many ways to get involved, which only enhances your family's Servite experience. Come and check out what Servite has to offer! You won't be disappointed! CREDO!

Crespi Carmelite High School

• Private School
• Encino, CA
• 9-12
• 51 reviews

Senior: What I like about Crespi is the brotherhood you have there. Everyone looks out for one another and wants to have a great day. Most kids wake up dreading school, but Crespi kids wake up excited for school. Unfortunately, the bad thing about Crespi is the higher-ups in the faculty. They think they are better than their colleagues and if they don't get their way someone gets fired. They have fired many great teachers and other members of the staff just because they didn't get their way.

Don Bosco Technical Institute

• Private School
• Rosemead, CA
• 9-12
• 103 reviews

Senior: At my experience at Bosco Tech, the school itself has great qualities, such as classes credits that go above and beyond what is needed to attend a Four Year College. Also at the Tech, we have Technology classes that are designed with different types of majors, that affect different fields of study. For example one of the classes is ACE which stands for (Architecture, Construction, and Engineering) Overall I think that Bosco Tech is preparing us not only for the next four years, but for life after that.

Senior: My time at this school has been amazing. Not only do they offer rigorous courses to help prep for college but they’re courses also go far beyond just reading out of a textbook. They teach the students how the material they’re learning relates back to daily life and how they can “light the world on fire”. This school is also the only school in Los Angeles that offers a Corporate Work Study Program that allows student to not only help pay for their education, but also gain experience from working in a corporate office, that ranges from law firms all the way to companies like Crisp Imaging, Latham & Watkins(a world renowned law firm), Herbalife, and many more! Have a strong brotherhood and would truly recommend to anyone.

Bishop Mora Salesian High School

• Private School
• Los Angeles, CA
• 9-12
• 92 reviews

Senior: When entering Salesian, you always hear the term "brotherhood." I can safely say, brotherhood is definitely in action at Salesian. The teachers could be replaced for more proficient ones, the sports could recruit better players, parents could be more active, but the brotherhood made it worthwhile. When you step on campus you truly feel home. Nothing beats the joy of going to school to see your brothers every day. The comradery is something special.

St. Catherine's Academy

• Private School
• Anaheim, CA
• K-8
• 2 reviews

Parent: My son attended the final two years (7th/8th) at SCA, and it was an absolute transformation in terms of character, leadership and maturity. My son was a distracted, entitled, immature, complacent, digital obsessed high energy boy, the typical smart under achiever. SCA transformed him into a mature responsible respectful leader. few caveats to keep in mind:
1. Academics. Wonderfully small classes (10 to 1 teacher ratio), where teachers work closely with the boys to ensure learning - parents are NOT expected to lift a finger to help. But don't expect the curriculum to be advanced top 1% stuff like Pegasus.
2. Tuition is not cheap and financial aid non-existent. But if you were planning to spend $15,000 per year anyway, there is not a better middle school for boys in all of California.
3. Objective of SCA is character and leadership, nothing less. If you want a school that coddles your child, this is not the school for you.
