John Dower is the name of this school. My initial thought from appearance is that the building from…read morethe outside lacks luster and looks a bit creepy. I hate that I prejudged. Once I toured the school the property seems to be well maintained. This includes the classrooms. The staff was welcoming and friendly, which is important to me. The principal seems to be quite involved. I was honestly horrified by the low scores of the school however I have come to learn that parent involvement plays a large roll in the success of your children. Last but not least, I am pleased with the structure and curriculum.

The booster club hosts a viewing of 10 Things I Hate About You here and I LOVE it! The school looks…read morejust like in the movie, maybe even more magical. The water view and beautiful architecture are just amazing. We were in the stadium and the stairs killed us- these students must be in great shape! Lots of steps from street level down to the field. I was very happy to support the booster club and watch one of my favorite movies. They have a great parking garage with several entrances, and also some great street parking. Lots to do nearby- so much great food and wine. Excited to come to more events here someday!

Just enough parking around this high school, but beware for the staff parking spots if you are just…read morehere to tour. The football team was playing on the field while I was here, but it was really neat to see the waterfront view just there with the popularized cement stairs from the 10 Things I Hate About You movie. The high school is so rich in history on how the architectures came about, its original vision, and how it became a high school thereafter. Recommend that you read up on it online before you come by here because it is pretty interesting and not a long read at all. The high school is really beautiful outside, but I wish that we are able to enter inside like the high school in Utah where High School Musical was based would host for guests during after school hours, which are 0600 to 1500, or 6AM to 3PM. They had a scavenger hunt so you could go to all the film locations within that Utah high school, which I wish this high school could do for 10 Things I Hate About You. Nonetheless a pretty sight and the house of main characters', Kat and Bianca's, house is like a 1.6 mile drive away from here.

You really feel like you are part of something special here! We also really like the faith based virtues that are taught at the school too.

Awesome school. Academics are well rounded, the sports are competitive, and the students, faculty,…read moreand staff are wonderful. I love Bellarmine

Fantastic school! Academics are top notch and setting my child up for success at university. The…read morebest part about Bellarmine is their mission to focus on the growth and development of the whole student. I've seen so much growth in my child over the past few years as a result!

Let's just say they're great at forcing you, as the parent, to do what they want by threatening…read more But god forbid you turn around and fight back because they'll simply kick your kid out of school and/or deny/delay services, forge documents, allow teachers to belittle you and your kids, lie about and stretch the truth, get justice through continued punishments towards your child... the list goes on, and on and on. We thought we were making progress, but (in hindsight) were treated like children and talked down to while the teachers, principal(s), dean of students,(school staff in general), school liaisons, and ESPECIALLY the Assistant Superintendent, Othene Wade ALL spoke to and treated my husband and I like we were children that needed to be taught how to "do as they told us" even when it was wrong and would cause damaging effects on our child and his progress. But they don't care and NO ONE in the school was willing to step up in our child's defense against her! Instead they're supporting and backing the their teacher who forged and lied on paperwork that got our child to lose his waiver!! This is by far the worst experience for our family and our for our child. Our fight continues, but this district, especially Mrs. Wade, has proven to our family that they'll say it, but they won't follow through and they really just don't give two sh!@$ about your kids!! DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE FINDING YOUR HOME SCHOOL!!! OR... JUST HOMESCHOOL AND PULL THE MONEY OUT OF THEIR GREEDY POCKETS!!!
