Senior: Saint Joseph-Ogden High School is a fantastic schools in terms of academics and teachers do a wonderful job, for the most part, of preparing their students for the outside world. My biggest issue with the school is that we are not very diverse, and therefore some students experience some hatred and bigotry from those who are less educated or come from less educated families. The school also tends to put it’s sports activists above all other extracurriculars, which is a major bummer for those of us in the arts or programs like student council. Overall, I absolutely love that staff and administrators, they do a fantastic job of listening to students needs and handling situations that are out of the ordinary. I hope that the school continues to uphold it’s standard of excellence long after I have left it’s halls. Be excellent, Spartans!...Read 138 Reviews

Senior: I've enjoyed being a student in the Prince George County, Virginia district. I have felt challenged in the International Baccalaureate, the Advanced Placement, and the Dual Enrollment programs. I feel that they have all adequately prepared me for college. The small town atmosphere is amazing and I like the way it feels when teachers know me by name. ...The only way that the school system can improve would be to offer more classes in personal finance and budgeting so that I will feel better prepared to live on my own after high school and college.Read 71 Reviews

Sophomore: The faculty is very welcoming and warm towards all students. You can tell during classes that teachers give their all towards educating the next generation. The majority of the student body is bright, kindhearted, and has a high chance of achieving great futures. A high percentage of those who attend First Baptist are go-getters. The school has a semi-strict dress code to ensure an air of modesty. Lastly, one of the highest priorities of this institution is upholding a good moral code...Read 5 Reviews

Senior: I like going to Calvary Baptist because they are faithful to teach from a Christian perspective, there is a family-like atmosphere, and they have high academic standards. The physics and math teacher is very knowledgeable in his field and interacts with the students well. Things that could be better are fewer video classes, a less strict dress code, and more progressive technology used in the classroom...Read 1 Review

Senior: I like the atmosphere of this school very much. Both the teachers and officers are very enthusiastic. They will help me with patient if I encounter any problem in study or life. The type of courses is also very rich, which can meet my various needs. The classroom environment is very good, the number of students in one class is not much, therefore the teacher can take care of each student's learning state. We also have some self-selected activities, which enriches my free time and gives me a chance to study and perform...Read 39 Reviews

Middle School Student: It is the best school I have ever been to and has opened the gates for me to really be able to learn. I especially like language arts and my teachers truly have a broad understanding of the world and inspire us. I have read books including Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre, The Power of One, Frankenstein, Henry IV, Henry V, Oedipus The King, and many more. I came in 7th grade and I thought I would have a hard time, but that was not the case. The school is so diverse and I have gotten to learn about a bunch of different cultures and it has given me a better understanding. I went to public school before and until I got to this school I did not really know whiten outstanding education was. I feel ready to share my ideas with the world...Read 9 Reviews
