Do not waste your money, poor teaching staff as well as principle and dean. If your not in the top of the athletic program, they have no idea whom your child is. The staff(office as well as teaching) are very rude, unkind, and misguided. They just want their money, the school does not prep them for college at all! They have no clue what classes children should take for college –they give them no help whatsoever-the parent has to send emails and make calls in order for the teachers to help children even when the kids ask for help the teachers state«read your notes». Less than 400 hundred kids and it’s horrible, I actually paid tuition for my child to learn Spanish from a tape recorder because the teacher they had was not a Spanish teacher ! And when he entered his 2nd year the teacher they finally hired had to teach them all over again — very sad — and when you complain they let it go thru one ear and out the other. There were children that did not graduate this year(so sad) and were not notified until it was to late for them, seriously this so called College Prep Catholic High School can not maintain less than 400 kids ! They should be embarrassed. There have been student pulled from this school due to bullying and staff did not want to her involved — their answer call police — who says that ! It was told to me by many many students that have gone to this HS they only way you pass your religion class with a certain teacher is to cheat, I would not stand for that, I called the principle whom is a priest and the teacher and stated my child needs help in this class and your jobs there are to help them ! And if the teacher can not fulfill this then I told the Priest it’s your job ! The counselor useless– did not send ACT scores to colleges, incorrect transcripts –and also the college wanted information from her she told me to do it ! What am I paying all this tuition for ! Very sad for kids that have come out if there –we have been in this catholic school system since our child was in kindergarten and all they want is your money. Show these kids a proper education pay teachers more to get them to do their job — Do not worry about if they have a belt on or their shirt is tucked in –there is bigger issues to be concerned about ! Do not waste your money —
