My Kolbe Cathedral experience is very complicated. Mastrone is the nicest person I will ever meet but there are other staff that can learn a few things from her.

During my four years at Kolbe Cathedral High School my experience has had ups and downs. From freshman year not knowing anyone to my Senior year recognizing almost every face is a growth I am proud of. The school does a good job preparing you for College and the Academics are great. The Sports here are okay with a few ranging from basketball, Track and Field and more.
