They don’t tell you, but Don Bosco is a trap attracting students due to its “beautiful college campus” setting. As much as the school is nice, it is the worst for those who have an aspiring future at any elite college. #1 there is a huge BULLYING issue. Being all boys there are a lot of horrible kid
Posted by a parent on 5/29/2025Worst experience ever! The support system at Don Bosco is awful and they don’t support those with aspirations of getting into top colleges like Ivy leagues. If you are not favored, you don’t succeed. Huge favoritism also occurs regarding placement in AP classes or honor societies. Do not go here, wa
Posted by a community member on 5/26/2025Life changer!!!! The greatest decision I ever made was to attend this school. The faculty and staff truly care for the students and push them to learn positively. The academic programs are second to none while supporting a strong sports culture.

Posted by a parent on 12/27/2020The most impactful circumstance affecting our son’s education is best understood when contrasting the public school he initially attended versus the school he then transferred into, Don Bosco. It is unusual in the sense that his previous public school was once regarded as one of the best public scho

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePros: my child genuinely did learn alot this year. For the first few weeks everything seems well.Teachers seem to like your child.They will provide one on one discussions with parents.Cons: The teachers and staff treat you like you don't exist. Literally they will say hi to your child and not even look your way during drop off.They make slick comments if they disapprove of the lunch you provide.The principle smiles alot but is very rude if you don't leave right away when you drop your child off. The teachers are quick to drop your childs time at the school if they are not compliant. They will continue to call you everyday to pick your child up the minute they don't do well. Teachers will not heat up the kids lunch if you don't heat it up. Even though they have a microwave in the classroom. They will feed your child cold food.They will send garbage home.Parent Review11mo ago - Lenape Meadows School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBest experience for our son. He loves coming to school. The teachers and staff are so welcoming. He is well supported by his peers even with him looking a little different there is a big awareness of stopping any bullying. The school is more diverse than the statistics say and that was very important to us.Parent Review4y ago - Academy of Saint Paul
