Senior: I had a great experience at Winchester Thurston. Everyone—the faculty, the students, the administrators, the custodial and kitchen staff—wanted the best for each and every one of us. It's a place that nurtures students and encourages them to pursue their passions. It's a collaborative environment where students are rarely in conflict with each other. It's easy to make friends and find people who share your interests. Teachers are always available and want to help the students. I couldn't have asked for a better place to grow.... Read 34 reviews

Freshman: I’ve been a student at Sewickley Academy since I was in pre-kindergarten and i’ve throughly enjoyed my experience ever since. The people that go to the school are amazing, instructors are top notch and strive to challenge students, and there are endless opportunities to pursue your life’s passion. The school has recently undergone a major uplift in athletic facilities and STEM opportunities ( most notably in computer science). Couldn’t ask for a better school experience than what I’ve had at Sewickley Academy.... Read 135 reviews

Niche User: Pittsburgh Central Catholic is a highly esteemed institution that turns young boys into men and is well worth the investment. Although it is a steep tuition the lessons a young man will learn from the brotherhood simply cannot be matched. Along with the lifelong relationships you will make at Central Catholic they provide an education that is undoubtedly one of the best in the sate and maybe the country. It truly exemplifies what a 'college prep' high school should be like. The teachers never push a religion onto there students and allow them to think for themselves as that is apart of becoming a man. Most students have an outstanding relationship with their teachers and counselors. The sense of pride you get while attending this institution is something any one watching from a distance can see. Always remember Tradition Never Graduates!... Read 147 reviews

Junior: I moved to Oakland Catholic sophomore year. I went to a school before that really did not match my needs. I knew someone from middle school that transferred here for high school. I always knew about the school, but never imagined myself there. I brought up the idea to my parents and they were hesitant. After months and months of conversation regarding the subject, they agreed to let me tour it. I still remember the day I toured, I was so nervous but pleasantly surprised by this environment. After the tour, I begged my parents even more to let me go. And my last day of freshman year my parents told me that I could go if I followed a list of rules they had for me. I've been here ever since and it has been an amazing journey. I've made friends I know I will have for life and amazing experiences and opportunities that not all girls are lucky enough to have. The all girls environment has helped me grow along with the amazing teachers who I know are setting me up for a successful future.... Read 428 reviews

Junior: Bishop Canevin is constantly growing! Adding new features like a cafe, and updated fitness center, a new gym floor, and remodeling classrooms every year. The small environment is a positive (in my opinion), but is growing each year. School spirit is extremely high and very involved. All of the teachers are helpful and open to help you if you are struggling at anytime. With a faith based education and and wonderful athletics, this school is home to many people....

Middle School Student: I am currently an 8th grader at West Allegheny Middle School and the teachers are great, the lunch staff is great, and the other faculty is great. The only problem I have with the school is how bad the internet connection is. With everyone having a laptop this year due to covid you would think that better wifi would be purchased, but this is not the case. Otherwise it is a great school!... Read 7 reviews

Parent: Moving from TX to PA, our biggest concern was finding a good high school for our son. After visiting multiple schools in the area, we applied to OLSH and are so glad we did. Our son is doing very well there, his academic performance is much better than in public school, where he commented on the continuous disruptions and lack of order in the classroom. We like that the school shares the Christian values we want for our son, without being overbearing. Everyone we've dealt with has been very supportive and helpful. The academic course load challenges without being a grind. The school has that "Ivy-league" look to it, attractive tree-shaded grounds situated at the top of a hill, a fantastic chapel, inviting library. OLSH seems to be a great springboard to a quality university. In fact, I understand that OLSH has a relationship with Notre Dame, and if our son could get in there, it would make his Fighting Irish fanatic grandmother's day!... Read 103 reviews

Senior: Eden Christian Academy is located in Pittsburgh, PA. In terms of academics, it can be challenging, but it prepares you for what is demanded from college students. It is clear that all of the teachers truly care and invest themselves into every student. Going beyond Edens academics, the sports programs are growing each year! Many of our sports have made it to WPIAL individuals, team WPIALS and even States. As a senior, students are given the opportunity to take charge by creating a vision for the school to embrace for the year by putting on events, creating service opportunities, and helping other grow in their faith. Eden also offers opportunities to serve our community through different clothing or food drives, donations, trips to local business that need people to do basic tasks they don't have time to do, and more! Eden is a tremendous school that teaches students real world skills and creates students who are ready for life after high school while forming life long friendships.... Read 63 reviews

Alum: RTCS is a great school with amazing teachers who genuinely care about you and are willing to help you succeed in any way possible. For the small size, there is a good amount to do, but if you are into sports, unless you really like Soccer and Track, there isn't anything else. The community is awesome, though!... Read 34 reviews

Junior: West Allegheny Senior High School is an excellent high school. It has friendly and helpful teachers pushing their students to do their best. West Allegheny also makes sure that each student is career and collage ready by the time they leave the high school. The student life is absolutely amazing. West Allegheny Senior High School has something for every student. From the many clubs and extracurricular activities such as speech and debate, GSA, marching band, MCJROTC, pizza and politics, ski club, and National Honors Society, to sports like football, swimming, tennis, track and field, rugby, soccer, and bocce, it is hard to choice what fun activity or activities you would like to participate in. If playing sports is not ones thing, then they could be apart of the enthusiastic student section at sports games.

Alum: Some students will beat up CV as a bad school but I truly enjoyed my 4 year of high school there. They offered many different classes and had so many different opportunities. While at CV I also went to Parkway West, a career school. They have many opportunities like that one to get students a head start on there careers. Mostly all of the teachers there have been absolutely wonderful and helped as much as they could. Most of them I will always remember because of how much they helped me through the years and really believed in me.... Read 227 reviews

Sophomore: I have attended Hillcrest Christian Academy since my sixth grade year and plan to continue throughout my high school years. The school is equipped with plenty of classrooms and space for students; the facility is beautiful. The high school has recently added classes from Geneva College that eleventh and twelfth grade students can take to receive college credit, wonderfully equipping students for a bright future. The teachers are kind, caring, personal, engaging, and a positive influence on the students at Hillcrest. The school provides a Christian environment that provides a positive experience for children and teenagers as they go through school. I highly recommend Hillcrest, as the school has been very influential and a wonderful blessing in my life as well as other students and families involved in the school.... Read 13 reviews

In all classes we discuss real world issues and evaluate it through literature, mathematics, world history, and etc. We have digital work and tech classes. We learn how to build our futures and accomplish our goals from day one. There’s a lot to say about CCHS, but most importantly it’s just a please where you can grow with your peers and teachers!...
