Current Resident: I have moved schools many times and one thing that’s different about HHS is that it doesn’t have as many cliques or groups as some other schools. Everyone is friends with everyone and there aren't too many grudges between people either. Another reason for why I like HHS are the classes it offers, I truly enjoy a lot of my classes, and with the quarantine thing that is going on lately I miss school a lot all the way from my friends to different classes. The thing I like most about school is that I get to meet my friends! And I get to learn a lot of things, both academically and daily life matters. I really like going to school cause I love hanging out with my friends and getting to meet and know new people everyday. Students aren't the only amazing people at HHS, the staff and the teachers are always very friendly, kind, cooperative and helpful. These are some of the multiple reasons I've always felt so comfortable at HHS both in both academic and emotional aspects... Read 49 reviews

Current Resident: Paxtonia is a small community that is clean, calm, and connected to each other. I love the community between the people and the safe neighborhoods. The houses are well-kept and seem friendly and connected. It's a place where I feel safe walking at night and enjoys walking my charge and exploring the fields around our houses. Though it can be a bit chilly, when the trees are all green and the Queen Anne's Lace blooms with forsythias, its amazingly beautiful. The negatives include: parking lot glaciers during the winter and potholes within potholes. The glaciers seem to form overnight after a large snowstorm, only popping up after the plows go through. Potholes and the eternal roadwork are a staple of PA in general, but especially in Paxtonia. As soon as one project for gas lines is finished two more potholes appear. Despite the never ending roadwork and mini-glaciers, Paxtonia has proven a safe and supportive place to live with a deep sense of community.... Read 27 reviews

Sophomore: My name is Caroline, and I am a current 10th grader at the Shipley School. I came to Shipley in 8th grade, where I was immediately welcomed with open arms. Everyone was so helpful, and genuinely willing to make sure that I was adjusting to the community. The past couple of years that I have spent at this school have been amazing. Shipley has allowed me to challenge myself academically, as I take several honors classes. I really enjoy the rigor of the classes, and the added challenge has helped me grow as a student and a person. All of my teachers are always willing to give any extra help I may need.I am also a member of 3 sports teams. I absolutely love playing Shipley sports due to the excellent coaching staff and the opportunity they give me to progress as an athlete. The Shipley faculty truly cares about its students, and creates such a positive atmosphere. I am looking forward to a great couple more years at Shipley!... Read 97 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
