I am currently a Junior at Mount De Sales! I can genuinely say I have found my home here. I have met my sailor sisters that I will carry with me the rest of my life!

Mount de Sales is an excellent academic program in a faithful Catholic environment. They strive to form the whole person. The teachers the school attracts are uplifting and care about the students as people.

The beginning of freshman year was amazing, as the year progressed things changed especially the people and drama unfolded which caused so much stress and insecurity on me. I wish the week before mid terms and finals we were not working on projects or homework so that I was not hoarding my days with work when I should be studying. Overall I did not like it, the atmosphere is to snobby and uncomfortable.

The school has significant bullying issues. My daughter was subjected to brutal bullying and spent most of her lunchtime in the bathroom. The administration, including the Dominican nuns did nothing to help. I do not recommend this school for any young girl/woman.

I loved the friends that I made and the teachers that I encountered, and they gave me a good education that will help me in the future. Their activities were fun and unique. But this school needs an admin overhaul and a huge shot of diversity. At the time of this writing they are hiring a new VP...l...
