It's easy to find something to get involved in, and the teachers were very supportive of my academic success.

I'm both an alum and a parent and I felt the need to make a review because I saw a previous post about there not being much of a music program. That is absolutely not the case. The music teachers are all top notch and the band programs are amazing and award winning. In fact, the marching band was actually one of the key differentiators that helped my child make the decision to go to Watterson over another Catholic Prep school in the area. So, if a strong music and band program that pushes students for excellence is important to you, Watterson is the right choice.

Overall experience was very good. Subjects taken were of excellent content. My teachers were knowledgeable and always available for extra help. I was a cheerleader and sports were always a major emphasis. Maybe too much so. A lot ofinvolvement with fundraising and volunteering. My four years were very enriching. My being a school ambassador was very rewarding. My overall high school experience at Watterson was outstanding.

My two grandchildren graduated from Watterson during the past 3 years & I am very pleased with the education they received. One is now a 4.0 GPA senior in college (pre-med), and the other is now taking a gap year before starting college next fall. They were both hardworkers - because that is what is...

In my humble opinion I think that Bishop Watterson is on a severe decline. This school is not a prestigious or good school rather the students are just smart. The education is mid-low tier and you could get it at any other public school for free. The school prevents students from accessing youtube a...

My daughter loves BWHS. After leaving a high ranking suburban district in MS for private HS, she could not be happier with her decision. Academic requirements have have gone up steeply from public school, but so have teacher supports. Students are held to a much higher behavioral standard and show m...
