Academically…read moreI feel as thought the school did a phenomenal job of preparing me for college and the real world. My main issue with Ursuline is the issue of bullying and favorites. Bullying is a huge issue at Ursuline. I'm not sure who the principal is now, but one principal was presented with clear evidence of bullying and chose to ignore the victim and even place blame on them. The staff plays major favorites and if you're not one of them you're screwed. So if you're gonna go here make sure you're a combination of pretty, smart, and athletic

This is actually Brandywine High School, part of the Brandywine district…read more Yelp seems to have most of the District's schools labeled as "Brandywine School District" and not by their actual names. This particular location is Brandywine High School. I admit my 5 star rating is probably a little biased. I'm an alumni. The school is not what it once was. The award winning marching band has shrunk in size since it won 1st place at the ACC's in the early 90's. The choir program has been seriously downsized as well. What makes the shrinking music department even more heartbreaking is that some great musicians have come out of this school. George Thorogood, Dennis Brockenborough (from The Mighty Mighty Bosstones), and John Gallagher Jr., Tony Award winner. Other famous alumni include Sean Patrick Thomas and Dexter Boney of the Phoenix Suns. The building itself certainly improved since I was a freshman many years ago. In 1997 there was a complete renovation, including improvements to the auditorium. Hopefully someone else will add a review for Brandywine, either one that's not so biased or one that's a bit more recent. ;-)

I'm a proud graduate of Brandywine High School, class of 2002. This was the best environment for…read morehigh school. 9 years prior to going there, I had spent a living hell in the halls of Wilmington Friends School being constantly tormented, bullied, and made to feel less than dirt. Transitioning to a public high school in 1998 was the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I made a large group of friends, took part in a variety of clubs, plays, and other activities, and just really felt like a new person. The best of times for me were in my Freshman English class taught by Ms. Beverly Schilling who I am still friends with to this day. I also had a blast in joining the high school yearbook club! I remember being in various musicals like The Wiz, The Music Man, and How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Honing my skills as both a singer and actor and learning some dance steps on the way as well! I'm proud to say I was also in the same year as actor John Gallagher Jr. who I'm still in touch with today as well as Seth Meyers comedy writer/actor Ben Warheit. The days I spent at Brandywine High School are memories I'll always cherish and be grateful for. I wish I had been able to attend my 10 year reunion, but unfortunately finances were just not good for me at that time. Hopefully for the 15th or 20th! In loving memory of Laura Shepherd, my Junior Year Chemistry Teacher who passed away during the start of my Freshman Year of college in the late Fall of 2002.
