Senior: Pacelli became my second family. I made many great friends. I have been taught by some of the best teachers I have ever known, and I have made the best memories of my life at Pacelli. The energy of the school when I walk through the doors brings me happiness and keeps me smiling every day. Pacelli has made me confident and has helped me move out of my comfort zone. I had this tiny bubble of security when I started at Pacelli. Over the years it has kept growing and growing. Pacelli has prepared me for graduation and beyond high school by giving me opportunities like PSEO, volunteer hours, school activities, an understanding of my faith, and so much more. Pacelli has taught and prepared me to be a leader and a role model - not only in school - but in this community. I have learned to respect everyone, to volunteer and participate in activities, to be a role model, and to be a leader for others. I have learned these valuable lessons at Pacelli, and I will take them with me wherever...Read 21 Reviews

Senior: The best thing about Blooming Prairie Secondary Schoo, is that you get to know the teachers so well and they always make it a point to make sure that you are doing the best of your ability. Since it is a small town we get to know every one of our classmates and it is one big family. The biggest bonus of going to Blooming Prairie Secondary School is the community has such a big impact of what happens with our school. For being a small town we get a ton of opportunities, whether it's seeing the possibilities outside of our small town or even joining the club or sport that's right for you!...Read 13 Reviews

Parent: My daughter began attending St. Bernadette School in the 7th Grade following our move to Northern Virginia. We couldn't be more pleased with her experience. The teachers, staff, student and parents are dedicated, kind, and caring. They helped her transition to a rigorous Catholic education, including first-time instruction in religion, grammar, cursive, and Spanish. The school is part of a vibrant parish; the priests are about campus and in the classroom. St. Bernadette School is Catholic education at its best!...Read 34 Reviews

Senior: My experience at Austin Senior High School varies. From the good times to the bad. Usually, in surveys about your high school experience, you're supposed to talk about all the football games and drama. But I would like to talk about how Austin Senior High School has changed my life. Freshmen year, also known as "the year the upperclassmen bully you." My first year taught me to trust my gut feeling in every difficult situation. Moving onto the sophomore year. The sophomore year taught me to live every moment like it's your last. Junior year was a little more difficult, it taught me to never look back once you've taken a step forward. Austin Senior High School has always had something to offer for everyone. Not only has the school taught me many things, but has helped me with some of my biggest challenges. As I move into my senior year at Austin Senior High School, I look forward to the everlasting memories it has given me throughout the past 3 years...Read 243 Reviews

Senior: I'm a senior at Hayfield High School now, and I've been attending Hayfield since Kindergarten. My favorite part about Hayfield is how close of a community it is, since it's a smaller school. It's such a nice feeling that everyone knows each other, and you can tell the staff really do care about the students. When the Covid-19 pandemic first hit in 2020 last year, many graduation ceremonies were no longer held in person- rather they were held online instead or simply cancelled. Hayfield, however, was one of about 2 or 3 schools total in Minnesota that still made it happen for our seniors- all while following any protocols that were required, of course! To be quite honest, I can't think of much that I would change about Hayfield other than maybe a few facility updates, but we recently just got approved for and have finished construction for the referendum- so plenty of updates have already taken place. All around, I think Hayfield is great and would definitely recommend it to people...Read 52 Reviews

Parent: As the parent of two children in the lower school, I am extremely pleased with SSSAS. The Early Saints teachers make each day engaging for my 3-year-old. The monthly units the ES learn have prompted my son to apply what he’s learned to the world around him (the food unit they completed prompts a nightly discussion about which foods on his plate are muscle foods, brain foods, etc.). His teachers started a recent parent conference with 3 very specific adjectives to describe my son and given the examples they gave me, it is clear that really understand him as a whole child. ...My experiences with JK and K were also nothing short of fantastic; even during the pandemic the teachers were able to connect with my son. The K and 1st grade teachers have also provided my son a solid educational foundation; they have identified his strengths and given additional challenging work so that he hasn’t been bored. Any issues I’ve had have been quickly and appropriately addressed by his teachers...Read 132 Reviews
