I recently graduated from this school after 7 years attending. The education and college…read morepreparation aspects are top tier. The student is held at a much higher standard, causing there to be many restrictions, even in the higher grades. Most teachers care not only about what they teach, but the students themselves. While this school excells in teaching work habits, it seems somewhat lacking in teaching social habits. You will most likely not have the same social-life experience that most high schools offer. Relationships between students seem strictly taboo similarly to relationships with coworkers. Despite this, I found my best friend here, and had a wonderful experience I will never forget. You will not regret going here in the slightest. ps give Mrs. Wilgenburg a raise she works too hard and bring Abbot and my boi Jeremy back thanks

A young person graduating from WCA will have the skills, habits, critical thinking, and personal character that will allow them to be successful at any college. The teachers and staff are both caring (they pray for their students) and committed to educating with excellence. They expect the best from their students, then help them achieve it.

After going to good counsel, I can say it's the worst catholic high school to send your child to…read more The "deans" are some of the rudest and careless people you will ever meet and i think everyone at the school would agree. There were times I would say hi to them, and instead of being nice, they would respond rudely or try to find something I was doing wrong. Yes, it is their job, but you can be decent about it. The rules are extremely strict, which caused me to feel anxious just walking into the school, scared I'd mess one thing up. They don't allow you to be on your phone, no matter what time of the school day it is. I received a detention (which is on Saturday mornings) because my mom was texting me about my grandmothers health, updating me on her surgery. They don't care what the reason is, even if it's something understandable. They block cell service throughout the school to prevent this, which is honestly scary if something were to ever happen in the building. The deans make it there lifes goal to shit on every student no matter when or where. Some teachers are very good at good counsel, but many are careless. I had teachers not grade my work for multiple weeks, which caused me to be stressed about my grade the whole quarter. Another thing is that the food is horrible. They make it seem so good during shadow visits, tours, etc. The food is of poor quality, and there were times it wasn't even warm. The school throws problems under the rug that involve staff that affect the students who go there, lying to everyone about the true reasons things happen to make the school seem better. Lying in public announcements and not valuing the catholic values is something good counsel does really well. Sure, they offer mass daily, but the staff lacks in truly keeping the values. The school supports homosexuality to a point where it seems more drastic than public schools. Supporting that as a school is something that should be implied, but the way good counsel does it is too much, which makes students feel uncomfortable. From hearing the staff is seriously considering gender nutural bathrooms and that they have pride flags in rooms within the school is something I do not think a catholic school should promote as much as they do. The future of this school does not look good if you are trying to send your child to a school to avoid these things, which is a reason I went there because they made it seem so different than it is during shadow days and tours.

She has been fabulous to work with, and she's made sure we are happy with the tutors she matches us up with. Michelle always gives us options when selecting a tutor, and we've been so happy with the results. My older son was having so much trouble with virtual learning that he was failing every class. Michelle matched us with an amazing tutor that connected well with my son, tutored in the subjects he needed most, and tutored in executive functioning. With the tutor's assistance, that mostly turned out to be in executive functioning and walking him through the steps to write a huge history paper, my older son ended up with A's and B's for the rest of the year. My younger son needed some help in writing this past year. Michelle recommended what seemed to be an unusual pairing, but my son is so inspired by this writing tutor that instead of playing video games, he takes time to write pieces for her to go over with him and suggest improvements. My older son is also seeing her now as well and is gaining valuable feedback on how he can improve his school writing assignments.

My husband and I decided to enroll our daughter in the St. John's Episcopal School Pre-K 3 class…read morewhen traditional child care was not working for us. I assumed that we would enroll her in St. John's for the two years of Pre-K 3 and Pre-K 4, and when the time rolled around for kindergarten, we would place her in a Montgomery County public school (as Montgomery county is recognized for its excellent schools). However, the teachers and staff at St. John's have made our decision to stay with St. John's well worth it. Our daughter, and now our son, have met wonderful friends, and enjoy participating in all of the activities that the teachers and staff painstakingly take the time to plan. From a parent's perspective, we love the small class sizes, and the fact that the teachers make our children comfortable and happy. Additionally we have witnessed firsthand the success of the school's work on character development, as all of the students are exceptionally polite, and friendly. Not only has St. John's provided a warm, safe, and fun environment for our children, but it also does not hurt that our children have really excelled academically during the course of their education with St. John's. We love the school!
