Not happy with one teacher there. He does NOT teach, gives the students a work sheet, tells the students to go into groups and google the answers. Sits in front of his computer and does not speak or teach the entire class room time. He treats his class like a study hall.

The staff and the teacher are wonderful. They helped provide two generations in my family with a great education and an amazing HS experience.

As an alumni, I can confidently say SJV prepared me well for what the world had to offer. It is a really special place where much of the administration and teachers really care about your success and want to guide you to where you want to be. They are always looking to grow and give more students more opportunities, and I always appreciated that. I was challenged and pushed to be the very best I can be, and was very ready for college when it came. The only negatives I have to say are the fact that when I was there, many of the students were not especially open-minded, and could be very judgmental of anyone who differed from them. The school, while it offers many opportunities for students, could also have a lot more. They really do work hard, but public schools are bigger and better funded and of course are bound to have literally everything (though SJV really does have quite a lot).Overall, my experience at SJV was a great one, and I thoroughly enjoyed my high school experience. I met a lot of wonderful people, was challenged academically and as a person, and ultimately, believe I left a better person because of it. I was never a number. The school wanted me to succeed and was proud of my accomplishments. It really is a unique place and I would definitely go back if I had to do it all again.

My son graduated in june and I have a lot of useful information for parents considering sending their child here. It should be made clear that many of these reviews are fraudulent. Last year my son showed me an email from the school's P.R./Marketing director where she asked students to post positive reviews on this website as to overshadow some of the bad ones. This is unacceptable and morally wrong to ask students to do this. I am also disappointed with the curriculum here. It seems simple compared to other schools in the area (both public and private). My son rarely came home with homework and when he did, it would usually take him less time than his brother who was in the eighth grade (now in the 9th at CBA). The laptops that the school gives out are a waste of time and money. My son had so many problems with his laptop that he just stopped using it. I can say with great confidence that the laptops impair learning rather than enhance it. Now in college, my son has said that SJV did not prepare him properly. After investing $45,000 over four years in his education, it is infuriating to hear this as a parent. *Also the assistant dean, David Tuschmann, is very unprofessional.

SJV was a wonderful High School experience for my son. The school not only fosters academic excellence but community service. Students learn to be part of the community as well as give back to the community. There was so much for him to do at school through clubs, sports and academics creating strong bonds and life long friendships. Faculty and staff also provided a strong and nurturing environment for learning and success. Because of SJV's motto of Knowledge, Commitment and Involvement I feel that he has a strong foundation for a successful future .
