William Tennent High School

As a parent of three – two currently attending and one who graduated from Nativity – I couldn't be happier with our family’s experience at Nativity. The school provides a nurturing and supportive environment that prioritizes academic excellence and character development. The teachers go above and beyond to offer personalized attention and the administration genuinely cares about the well-being of the students. I highly recommend Nativity of Our Lord School to any parent seeking an outstanding education for their children.

St. John Bosco School was a great school, but was sadly shut down in 2010.

I started to attend this school in 2011, and I loved it. All the staff were amazing people and always accommodated others and went out of their way to help students understand the content they were teaching, but everything changed once the principal was replaced. Since none of the teachers liked the new principal, around 80% of them left the next year. The new principal is a nice person, but is kind of unjustly strict, leaving the students with no chance to explain themselves and making them feel like what they say doesn't matter. Although I understand how hard a job as a principal is, I don't think that falsely accusing students of punishable offenses is a way to deal with your problems. Most of the new teachers that have been hired recently are irresponsible and rude, leaving kids to act up in their classes. I could go through thousands of things wrong with the teachers, but I won't go on a rant. Not all is bad, though, since there are some really good teachers. There are about 3 teachers that teach middle school level that are responsible and intelligent. The rest are young, very irresponsible and irritable. There is one teacher that I especially dislike, but I won't list names for the sake of my own safety. Even without the issue of teachers, the school (mostly the boys bathrooms) is never clean, due to the annoying students ruining it out of spite of the school, which ruins the experience for everyone else. The only thing they do to fix this is completely banning the use of bathrooms instead of finding out who did the crime. This I don't understand, since they literally have cameras everywhere, and they could easily find the culprits, but I personally think that they're too lazy to do anything about it. Talking about laziness, there used to be a plethora of school events and fundraisers that I could think of off the top of my head, but they've all been either degraded into nothing or been erased from the year completely. Everything feels like they put barely any effort into it, and it really sucks, since they had some really amazing and engaging events in the past. Anyway, I feel as if they've gotten lazier and lazier as the years go on. They've promise us new equipment and re-vamps all the time, but nothing ever happens. We are told that we raise thousands of dollars through fundraisers, and it will be used to upgrade or install things, but again, it never happens. These are only a few problems I have, but I also don't think you shouldn't go here.
