The best part about my experience here at this school is that as students, we are prepared for college by the time we are seniors, making the process much more simpler.

I loved Bishop Montgomery during my freshman year (I'm class of 2023) because I found it so easy to talk to others and create friendships. After COVID, I found it hard to connect with others, especially because Bishop tends to have really tight cliques where others aren't able to join. I did like how we did have a good amount of school spirit, but it didn't seem to compare to public schools; there were no field trips, and I'm not sure about the senior trip... my sister went to Europe for her senior trip but she attended a public school.

I'm still currently a high school junior but I think it's good for student activities and preparing you for AP exams but the counselors don't do a good job of helping plan for college.
