    The middle school is led by Joel Key and Omar Bryan. Joel and Omar are very passionate in helping…read moreand supporting the teachers and the students. The faculty is made up of dedicated group of teachers and staff that ensures that the students learn to collaborate, explore, and reach their potential. In an effort to keep their student's eyes on the prize of going to college, the students have had multiple opportunities to visit different institutions such as Stanford, UC Berkeley, St. Mary's College and NASA to name a few. In the beginning of my daughter's 7th grade, the school went to Saratoga Ropes Course to build camaraderie, trust in their peers and improve their self efficacy. I highly recommend this school. We are happy to be part of this strong community.

    If you're thinking about enrolling your child here, forget about it. The school has gone downhill…read moreover the years and has yet to prove that they set their students up for success. The high school is now under a new principal who is set on following the rulebook, isn't helping at all. Shes also just straight up rude most of the time. Most of the bathrooms are closed throughout the school day, causing an inconvenience to students who only get less than 10 minutes to go to the bathroom. The admin is planning to take away many things for teachers, such as their prep period. Alumni often state that this school did not prep them for college whatsoever. Their high percentage rate for kids getting into 4 year universities is all for show, these kids are required to apply to cal state schools. Their college counselor is also lacking. My friend was moved to regular decision from one of their top schools just because the counselor didn't send in her transcript in time, and this happened more than once. There is little to no AP classes offered here as well. Their environment is not friendly, as they only give kids a slap on the wrist for doing wrong things. I remember this one time a kid was caught doing blackface during school hours, he didn't even need to apologize to the school and ended up facing very little consequences. They allow kids to continue attending the school even though that puts the idea of their "safe environment for all" at risk. I can tell why enrollment rates are dropping significantly. The administration currently have no regard for the teachers or the students. Just go to LPS if you're dead set on your kid going to a charter school.

Hayward high also has many extracurricular activities such as Photography, Sports Medicine, BioMed, Engineering and etc. They also have college prep classes such as Avid and Puente, which not all schools have these classes. My daughter is a Junior and plays volleyball. Few months ago she has went against Hayward High's varsity volleyball team. They're volleyball team wasn't the best, but the one thing I loved about them was that even though the score was 7-16 they would still have smiles on they're faces and they all would hype each other up ! Hayward High has their school spirit and good sportsmanship!

    i do not recommended this school what so ever, most times you see kids in the bathroom smoking it…read moreup and the security gaurds do nothing about it, teachers are helpful but will mark you absent if you don't say your name to them (only if your a new student like i am), i went to classes on monday and tuesday and they still marked me absent and it makes me mad because i was there and present. most kids are disrespectful, rude, and don't help out. i asked someone for help because i was new on campus and i couldn't find my class and they told me to, "f off and go away", and honestly they could've just said i don't know instead of that. and honestly hayward high school isn't a school where you wanna send your kids if you want them to get a good education, teachers are helpful to an extent but most of them not really, they try to be nice but afterwards they aren't. overall i don't recommend this school if you want your kids to have a good education, and i am a freshman here and i don't even recommend it. (i've been here for less than a week and it was the worst few days of my life.) DO NOT CHOOSE THIS SCHOOL.

    I had my kid attends the high school this year because of the reputation. But we have big…read moredisappointment. First they don't allow students to choose their science courses in 9 th grade , instead they require them to take in sequence ( physics, chemistry biology). Then the main science course teachers especially AP Physics and Chemistry honor don't know how to teach. Those teachers don't know how to help students to apply their knowledge and concepts to solve problems, and assign homework on regular basis to help students to reinforce what they learn. My kid and the entire class struggle and stress on these subjects. The administration staff don't care. Students have to watch YouTube to learn it themselves. What is the point of paying high tuition for the teachers can't teach and kids have to look for resources from YouTube themselves!! My kid also mentioned that most of the students in the class cheat but the teachers don't know because too busy in texting or they just don't care. I am thinking to pull my kid out of this school next school year. I don't recommend this school at all . Don't waste your hard earned money !

    This school has a strong focus on academics and the high school received the Blue Ribbon award of…read moreexcellence for 2016. They also offer various sports programs. After visiting other private schools, there are attributes that set this school apart. For example, the school provides electives that will get your child ahead of the current industry such as coding, 3D printing, etc. The school staff is very friendly and will answer any and all questions you may have. I would send several emails a day before registering my son with questions and received a response in most cases immediately or within an hour after sending. My son shadowed for two days and immediately wanted to enroll. The teachers are very attentive and partners with parents to ensure your child is successful. Every student is issued their own Chromebook and many of the lessons taught in the classroom is taught using the laptop. The school has a focus on technology and uses apps that shows grades and upcoming calendars to help students and parents manage assignments and exams. This is a school that I would consider thinking ahead of the curve and innovative which is needed as there is a lot of competition for jobs in the Bay Area. I believe this school will provide my child a foundation for success. The school provides college planning counselors that will meet with your child individually. The campus is a newer building which also made my decision to enroll my child even easier. If you are looking for a school for your child 6th-12th grade, you should consider Crosspoint Academy. The school has an Open House this Saturday, 2/4/17 from 10am to 2pm. It will be worth your time to visit.

    Moreau has truly disappointed my son and our family. We brought into their belief that Moreau staff…read moreis here for your child. They use catch phrases like we are a community and understand that kids will make mistakes, we are pillars, we will work with your child, were here for them. Well, it turned out that it didn't apply to my son. My experience with the current leadership at Moreau I feel was very bias towards my son and wife. After serving his suspension he was not afforded a review committee board meeting as described in the student handbook 2024-2025 to review parties involved, evidence etc. The principle stated that she knows my son is a good kid but it's better for him and the Moreau community for him not be a student here at the school. Our appeal to the principal decision was summited with no response from the leadership. Per student handbook, appeals are to be submitted to the principle within 24 hrs. The principal said at that moment that appeals are handled by the school president. So, the appeal was summited again to the school president. Three days pass and my wife contacted the school president who claimed she hasn't checked her emails in the past three days and that appeals are handled by the principle. The appeal was forwarded via email back to the principle. Still no response to the appeal. My son was not allowed to return to Moreau. The principle stated she's doing my son a favor by not expelling him but instead letting me withdrawal him. Well, that hasn't turned out well for my son or family. Let me share this with everyone who reading my review. Our refund was denied because of their refund policy. We have paid over $12,000 dollars in tuition to Moreau to date for my son who only has completed 3.5 weeks of school. That's right over $12,000 for 3.5 weeks of school. This should be a crime to have the ability to do this. Moreau sites that each head count for tuition is calculated in their yearly school budget. Moreau has no regards to how their decision has financially and mentally impacted my son and our family. No regards to my family budget and finances. This is unethical that Moreau is not going to refund my son tuition. There needs to be consumer protections laws for paying families at private schools such as Moreau Catholic High. Parents who currently have kids enrolled at Moreau need to question the business office about tuition insurance for consumer protection. The super sad part about all of this is Moreau touts' community but don't live up to it. My wife submitted an addendum to the appeal letter explaining how much we are involved in the Moreau and Oakland Diocese community. The school principal and president apparently don't care that I'm highly known and respected in the cyo track and field community. The school principal and president don't care that I help coach Ben with the track team some years ago at Moreau. The school principal and president don't care that some of your best student athletes have been impacted by my coaching and mentoring. The school principal and president don't care about all the voluntary work my wife has done at my son middle catholic school prior to Moreau. The school principal and president don't care that many families currently that have kids enrolled at Moreau know of the contributions me and wife have done in the community. Just a pointed fact public school students have more protected student rights than private school students who pay tuition. Nonetheless, I'm seeking legal counsel.

    It's been about 3.5 years since I wrote my original review of Moreau Catholic High School. I wrote…read morethe original review within the first or second month of my son attending the school. Now both my son and daughter attend and I have a good knowledge of most of the sports, activities, clubs, teachers, faculty, etc. Overall our experience has been top notch, it truly is the best High School in South Alameda County. We have been so pleased with the staff and faculty and we have seen such a renovation boom with new the sports field, bleachers, sound system, scoreboard, etc. They've modernized the campus theatre, and now they are in the process of renovating the individual class rooms. It's amazing to see things change so fast, right before your eyes. My son had some difficulty his sophomore year with a couple of subjects and his counselors were "On It", they worked with him with special tutoring after school and co-lab's. They made sure he didn't slip through the cracks, my wife and I were amazed and grateful for the outpouring of attention when they see a student struggling. He's back on track, thanks to the staff, and is prepared for college next year. Now, is everything, (as Mary Poppins said) "Practically Perfect in Every Way"? No, we had a couple of teachers who tested our nerves, the cost of a private education has made me sweat bullets once or twice and I have not agreed with everything the upper management of the school has done, but overall I'd give the school a 95% out of 100. There is always room for improvement and it's continuing to be a great experience. If you can afford it and you wish for your children to attend one of the better colleges or universities in the country, you can't beat the higher education model of Moreau Catholic.
