The school is a pretty terrible school parents think they are getting the best education here but the truth is that the teachers are just assigning tons of work and kids mainly have to figure out how to solve things on there own because the teachers can’t explain how they got there answer. The whole environment of the school and the classrooms are toxic kids here are mainly two faced and with be nice but say stuff behind your back like. Really like stereotypical rich kids. The teachers are a whole other subject half of them don’t want to exist on the campus anymore. Most of them just don’t care enough to actually teach kids anymore. It’s kind of sad. The teachers that do care the students don’t ever listen to them.They really are just a front of a school bringing in parents with the fact that they are Private Catholic but don’t be deceived most kids in the school aren’t religious and do not care about learning.

Favoritism is big part in that school, they don’t really help with students who are struggling (TEACHER wise) counselors do an okay job, but as soon as your grade drops to a C they immediately contact you about it, it can be annoying because they are constantly on you about Cs. Administration, they don’t seem to know what to do. An example of that would be: When I had a spider bite, my arm immediately felt numb. I went to the office because they don’t have a nurse, and when they asked to see it they said “you’ll be fine.” And continued to put neosporin… and I had to leave early because neosporin wasn’t doing anything. Students, LOTS of cliques and LOTS of unwelcoming kids. Lastly, work and homework: I’d suggest that you DO NOT procrastinate, especially in English class. For English they WILL NOT accept LATE work UNLESS you have a reason. I would also suggest to get ahead of homework/ classwork. Some teachers post agendas early and you can see what you do in class. All in all the school is challenging mentally and physically, if you have social anxiety/ anxiety. This school IS NOT the perfect match. 95% of the time they don’t care about your child’s help TRUST me, junior year was so difficult for me I left because when I talked to counselors about my anxiety and how I feel trapped and triggered in class they told me “everyone goes through it, just think differently.” it’s hard and challenging.

It is an environment where everybody cares about you as a person not as a name on a sheet of paper

Very good school. It is a good investment for your child education in High School.

This is only the beginning of year two for us. Our experience has been what I expected. I feel like my student can be themself here and they are happy, comfortable, and feel as though they are part of a bigger community. My biggest gripe would be the lack of consistent expectations for the parents, specifically at Bingo. I do not like how I earn the same hours as people who literally disappear for chunks of time or stand along the wall and not participate. Otherwise, I feel my child is held accountable, given opportunities to learn, grow and thrive. I am pleased with our experience thus far.
