St. Catharine has given me a great experience to travel abroad to see and learn new things. I have made great friends in this school.

I had a good time here but it's nothing noteworthy. A lot of the teachers here aren't qualified and probably shouldn't even be employed as teachers, and compared to other schools, the college readiness is incredibly lacking. One of the redeeming qualities are the sport and club varieties offered here.

The school is strict when it comes to dress code and electronics. The teachers are below average. And the ones that are exceptional, leave. Some of these teachers are just plain, ole' brainless or have some kind of quality that makes them really, boringly DULL. The teachers in the foreign language d...
