Senior: I have had a positive experience, as I have excelled under the help I have gotten from the teachers and peers. Most of the teachers are very willing to help you if you need it, and are genuinely kind. However there are a few very rude or aggressive teachers. School culture was definitely great, as there are very few people at school who actively dislike each other or bully others, but there are still the "clicks". The athletics are really good though, along with our facilities. Jesuit is a great college prep school, as it can get quite demanding.... Read 76 reviews

Junior: I like how St. Francis High School prepares you for college and the future careers you want to pursue. There's a variety of college-preparatory courses fit for any student regarding her academic background. This school is competitive athletically and academically as it puts a lot of pressure on hard-working students. The administration, wellness counselors, and college counselors are very active as they provide many resources that benefit students struggling mentally or with grades. As an all-girls school, the sisterhood community is empowering and motivates students like me to get involved in leadership and social opportunities as a female. St. Francis is very welcoming to new students and there is always a place where you can fit in whether it's clubs, friend groups, campaigns, or volunteer groups. The teachers provide engaging lessons to help motivate students to participate and share ideas with each other. Go Troubies!... Read 297 reviews

Junior: Teachers range in ability, but those who teach honors and AP courses are very helpful, kind, and understanding. The school has a flexible schedule for students (due to COVID), splitting 7 classes into a 3 class or 4 class schedule, each twice a week. And on Wednesdays, school starts and 9:45! The largest downside is the recent transition in the administration. Teachers who have been at the school for a long time have blatantly told students that the new admin have not yet understood the school’s culture and Lasallian foundation. Although I’m sure with time this will get better.... Read 255 reviews

Parent: St. John Vianney is a wonderful school. I’ve been so impressed by the dedication of the teachers and leadership. My daughter started St. John Vianney this year. I couldn’t have made a better decision on her school placement! She has learned so much in just a few months and has been provided with a safe and nurturing setting! I am looking forward to seeing my children grow and learn in a positive and structured environment. When we joined the school , we felt immediately welcomed. St. John Vianney has plenty of opportunities for service projects, sports and fun community events! It's a perfect fit for our family!... Read 11 reviews

Parent: I have three children that attend St. Francis of Assisi Elementary school, all of them starting since Transition Kindergarten. Before settling in at St. Francis, I interviewed over 8 Catholic schools in the area and choose this one. The Franciscan feeling of inclusiveness is prevalent. From the moment you enter the campus you can tell the community thrives on a collective soul of kindness. St. Francis of Assisi Elementary school is known to be among the highest academic scoring in the Catholic School Diocese.... Read 10 reviews

High School Senior: OLA is a relatively good school. Many teachers are kind and caring, but some are not. It prepares decently well for high school, but I wish it prepared students better in terms of math and gave more options for advancing farther in mathematics going into freshman year in high school. The school has many fun events that everyone attends.... Read 1 review

Parent: Highly recommend this school! Academics are sound, teaching staff is approachable, caring and attentive to developing the whole person. St. Joseph’s Catholic School offers a safe nurturing environment where parents are encouraged to participate in the education of their child(ren). There is an array of after school activities and community service projects that enable the students to grow in awareness of the world around them and how they can truly make an impact!...

Parent: At St. Mel Catholic School, you will be apart of a community that embraces unity, support, and a mission to encourage academic excellence and community service. My daughters have experienced the opportunity to challenge themselves, participate in giving to the less fortunate by providing food and essential items, as well as maintaining a spiritual life through liturgy and prayer. School sports are available and leadership is encouraged.... Read 4 reviews

Middle School Student: New to the school for the 2017-2018 school year, St. Robert has been a blessing for my child and our family. She entered in the middle school and was well received by both the caring staff of teachers, and overall welcoming student body. Academically, the curriculum is challenging and yet straight forward. Solid foundations of critical thinking, math and science skills are consistantly being built upon. There are many after school sports, with both comp and rec levels, to allow all levels of athletes to participate, and be on school teams to build friendships, skills and school spirit. The after- school options also include band, choir, baton, etc. Probably something for everyone. The new principal is amazing: strong, caring, strict, progressive. We do not regret for a second transfering to this school.... Read 7 reviews
