Christian Brothers Academy was a really good fit for my son. The Academics challenged him while the JROTC program taught him discipline. It was a great community that has prepared him for the next step.

I have been at this school since 5th grade. Overall I have had an amazing experience. There have been many teachers that are definitely dedicated to the students. The music program which I have always been a part of is great. I just came back from my 3rd trip to Disney with the marching band. The only downside is I wish there were more AP classes offered and I wish the guidance department were more hands on with the students. I do believe in the next few years that will be addressed.
