I've attended it for my entire highschool career. My experience with the Ignatius community has been nothing short of excellent. Admittedly, occasionally some teachers have been disrespectful in the past to students. However, the vast majority are both kind and critical of those who mistreat students even if it is another student or one of their peers.

St. Ignatius is a school that really felt like a family. The teachers are very welcoming and do their best to help you succeed. The famous is also gorgeous, which is important to me. The downside is that it is a bit of a bubble, which doesn't quite prepare you for the real world. Overall, I really enjoyed my four years at Ignatius and would make the same decision again.
